WHAT IS HYPERVISOR

Hypervisor technology enables multiple solutions / operating systems to be operated off a single SoC, presenting an opportunity to rationalise complex in-car hardware and software systems and ultimately improve security and ease of management.

As used by the military, Hypervisor offers the best opportunity to meet the growing security and performance demands of leaders in the connected car industry and their discerning customers. At Perseus, we are committed to delivering on its potential.

HOW IT WORKS

WHY HYPERVISOR?

Connected cars feature up to 120 independent connected in-car solutions, many of which have unproven security and are developed by different suppliers. These complexities make overall system security extremely difficult.

In 2015 white-hat hackers disabled a Jeep Cherokee while it was being driven. The same hackers revealed additional security issues just a year later. While there was no loss of life, the cost to Chrysler was a recall of 1.4 million vehicles.

Without a sure solution, the connected car industry will become the next battleground for malicious hackers, with potentially deadly results.

Our secure container reduces the cost and complexity of in-car technology implementation at the manufacturing stage and simplifies the management and maintenance of connected in-car services.

An additional and perhaps even more compelling benefit is the ability to guaranteeing industry-leading security of in-car connected services while maximising performance.

HISTORY OF HYPERVISOR

First utilized in the banking industry as far back as the 1970s Hypervisor was still highly complex when Perseus founder began innovating within the space in 2008.

By 2011 Perseus CEO, Dr. Suh’s pioneering work and leadership of the open source community had resulted in major breakthroughs in Hypervisor development that enabled significant steps towards commercialization of the technology, as demonstrated in the diagram below.

Founded in 2016, Perseus is dedicated to the further development of Hypervisor technology for the connected car industry that has among the highest demand for virtualization solutions and for security – Hypervisor presents the best opportunity to achieve both goals.

WHAT IS SECURE CONTAINER

Once in-car connected systems have been simplified with a Hypervisor, implementing a robust security solution becomes much more feasible.

Secure container enables multiple secure containers to run off a single SoC. Each secure container delivers a similar level of security to the Trust Zone that is featured in ARM hardware.

Perseus secure container enables real-time control of each application / operating system. Parameters can be pre-programed, controlled algorithmically, or managed in real-time to prevent security threats from materialising.

This level of real-time, flexible control is unique in the industry.

WHAT IS LINUX FAST BOOT

Linux-powered devices, like rear-facing safety cameras, typically take ~15 seconds to boot up. This results in serious safety concerns – an issue that both the USA and European regulators have addressed. Our optimised Linux boot sequences have dramatically reduced Linux boot up speeds to just ~2 seconds while maintaining optimal kernel size.

PERSEUS LINUX FAST BOOT solution is compatible with existing Linux OS, meaning that internal engineers do not need to learn new coding languages to implement and run Perseus Linux Fast Boot (as is typically required for most ‘real-time OS’ solutions).
