Threats to cyber systems are continually evolving, so your test environment also needs to evolve. Testing on your production system is not only risky, but may not be possible if it isn’t built yet. Creating a physical replica is too expensive, especially if you have to recreate it again after one of your tests blows up the system.

Wind River^® is joined by Alpha-Beta Technologies (ABT) in this web seminar, where we discuss some of the challenges of testing for security vulnerabilities in today’s systems.

• Overcome some of the challenges inherent in testing systems built for MIL-STD-1553
• Test for OTE security and conduct root cause analysis much more efficiently
• Conduct non-destructive security testing by creating a virtualized environment that can be set up, blown up, analyzed, and recreated endless times without damage to the system
• Test vulnerabilities by injecting faults into the system
• Manipulate time to your advantage—the system clock can be manipulated to create security breach opportunities; being able to manipulate the time in simulation helps uncover possible exposures

Thanks to the technology advances and discoveries of the past few years, robots are becoming more sophisticated, while end users are demanding higher accuracy, speed, programmability, autonomy, and more.

Collaborative robots hold the potential to increase productivity by up to 20%.

Robots are evolving into intelligent, autonomous machines that make decisions at the electromechanical edge, where most processing of the massive amounts of available data is happening — but data is also integrated and analyzed in a larger cloud infrastructure. This presents both opportunities and challenges for robot manufacturers and solution providers, as they connect these two worlds.

Integrating more intelligence closer to the edge reduces data transfer. It also means traditional automation technology must be augmented with real-time AI.

• How you can build a solution designed to operate at the edge and easily connect to cloud environments

• What level of security is needed to prevent disruption of industrial workflows

• The place of AI and machine learning in robotics applications

• What you should look for in your real-time technology stack in order to make real-time AI systems possible

Safety has always been a key requirement for aviation systems, and as the world digitally transforms it is both more important and more complex than ever. For military airborne platforms, the U.S. Department of Defense is promoting the implementation of open architecture solutions to enable more capable avionics hardware and software and to transition systems into the field faster and at lower cost.

To meet this requirement, the Future Airborne Capability Environment (FACE^™) consortium developed an open architecture technical standard as well as business models for implementing FACE standards, which includes profiles for safety systems. But safety engineering practices are outside the domain of the FACE Technical Standard—these are left to industry best practices and existing safety processes such as RTCA DO-178C.

Join aviation experts from Wind River^®, Rapita Systems, and Collins Aerospace for an online panel discussion of these issues and more.

• How are experts thinking about and applying FACE to build the next generation of avionics standards?

• Why are FACE-conformant technologies interchangeable, and how can you distinguish among them?

• What new safety challenges will you encounter in a digital world where FACE conformance is essential?

Digital transformation is all around us. It’s a $2T annual investment (the size of the 10th largest economy in the world). By choice or by default, navigating a pathway to success has to be the main focus of leaders as they look inside their company, their industries, and across new opportunities. The most successful executive leaders invest on average 17.4 hours a week focused on managing and collaborating for design.

The Wall Street Journal bestselling author of The Digital Helix: Transforming your Organizations’ DNA to Thrive in the Digital Age and Forbes contributor on leadership, Michael Gale will show specific primary research from the six-year project to detect the DNA behind digital transformation success.

View the presentation if you want to answer any of the following questions for your organization:

• Why should we care about digital transformation, and why now?

• What challenges will we face when transforming digitally?

• How do we successfully transform to digital?

• What does successful leadership look like?

• How can we reach the fullest potential of our organization?

All stakeholders agree that a good security strategy is essential when building an intelligent-edge device. After all, you can’t have a safe product without a good security implementation. Yet, while 70% of executives think their products meet industry benchmarks, 50% of developers believe their products fall short of security requirements.

Join Wind River^® Principal Security Architect Arlen Baker as he shares stunning new survey results that show an extreme disconnect between executive perception and the reality of embedded security implementations.

• The biggest security threats executives and developers are concerned about

• Who is responsible for implementing security features

• The roadblocks to securing devices

• How security breaches are identified and resolved

Earlier this year, Wind River^® teamed up with F5, Schneider Electric, and Heavy Reading on a global survey of communications service providers in order to better understand what drives their edge computing strategies. Listen as representatives from each company share and interpret the results.

• Which use cases are currently driving edge computing

• How service providers will secure their coming edge deployments

• How edge computing will impact 5G rollout and vRAN

• What challenges telcos are seeing to full-scale edge deployments

In order to stay ahead of the competition, telecom equipment manufacturers must deliver more features at a faster pace. Modern development methodologies make this possible, but they also place new demands on hardware availability. Automation, collaboration, and access to the hardware are more important than ever before—and simulation technology, along with modern OS development methodologies, helps development teams achieve these.

Join us for a close look at Wind River^® Simics^® and Wind River Linux and find out how developers can benefit from working with them.

• How Simics can be used to simulate a board for telecommunications products
• New methods for debugging applications in a sandbox environment
• How Simics can simulate entire networks of boards, allowing for new inspection capabilities
• How to build an image in Wind River Linux containing exactly what you want; nothing less, nothing more

Simulating systems, from the smallest to the most complex, allows you to adopt new development techniques that are simply not possible with physical hardware. By moving from physical hardware to a virtual lab, embedded software teams can revolutionize crucial aspects of their processes, enabling them to deliver better software faster.
