Dear ,
we would like to give you an update about the recent developments of Kernkonzept and our L4Re Operating System Framework. We have some big news to share, so be sure to read until the end!
Save the date: Getting Started with L4Re Workshop, Oct 22-24
Let's start with an important announcement: We are holding our first open workshop about the open-source software L4Re that our company has been developing and maintaining since its founding in 2012. We are inviting you into our Dresden headquarters, where we provide all the necessary equipment to take your first steps with L4Re.
This is an exclusive offer for a small number of participants, so you best secure your spot right now!

BSI accreditation for L4Re Secure Separation Kernel
2024 started very well for us: In January, the L4Re Separation Kernel got accredited by the German Federal Office for Information Security (Bundesamt für Sicherheit in der Informationstechnik, BSI) for processing classified information (VS) up to the classification level, GERMAN GEHEIM.
Kernkonzept is now the only manufacturer of VS IT solutions with such a highly approved separation kernel. This milestone opens a lot of new applications for us and our customers, such as the Secure Cloud.
We are also in the process of approval for a NATO SECRET accreditation for the L4Re Separation Kernel, that should be granted in the nearest future.
Finally, we are busy working to be able to offer our customers the next version of our approved L4Re Separation Kernel for the Arm architecture, in addition to x86.

Automotive Safety with EB corbos Hypervisor
We were thrilled about Elektrobit's announcement of a safety-compliant Linux solution: The EB corbos Linux for Safety Applications now complies with the ASIL B standard. It utilizes the power of the microkernel-based EB corbos Hypervisor, that is based on the open-source software L4Re. This is an important step forward to the vision of the software-defined vehicle, which Kernkonzept has been working on together with Elektrobit for more than 5 years.
Even better: There will soon also be a safety-compliant EB corbos Hypervisor that is certified as ASIL B!

L4Re supports Arm Automotive Enhanced IP and Digital Twins
In June, Arm launched its new Automotive Enhanced IP on a virtual platform, enabling automotive manufacturers and Tier 1 suppliers to start their software development as soon as a new Arm processor generation is released. We are proud to announce that the L4Re Hypervisor supports the Automotive Enhanced IP, providing developers with consistent abstraction layers between hardware and software and speeding up development thanks to digital twins.

Arm Tech Blog about L4Re Micro Hypervisor on R82
Arm has become a trusted partner for our company, not just since we were invited to present our L4Re Micro Hypervisor as a demonstrator on the Arm automotive platform at their booth at embedded world 2023.
We are proud to be part of the Arm partner network. After hosting a Tech Talk with a Cortex-R82 demo, I got invited to write a post for the Arm Automotive Community page, where I outlined the urgency to use hypervisor technology to further consolidate software in more powerful silicon platforms.
