Defence-related IT systems are under pressure: increasing software complexity and hybrid threat scenarios are heightening the demands. Monolithic operating system architectures are reaching the limits of their capabilities. New approaches for military and high-security applications embed cyber resilience at the operating system level.

Defence-related systems such as mission computers, radio and communication platforms, sensor fusion units, or command and weapon systems must execute a multitude of critically important applications simultaneously today. They often process classified information and operate in highly adverse environments. In addition to maximum security, deterministic real-time capability, high availability, and formal certifiability are essential requirements.
