From the adaptation and maintenance of the Linux base system to the development of complex applications for embedded systems according to current standards and norms - our services guarantee optimum performance, quality and security for your product.
Linux and embedded Linux in products with high and very high security requirements. Consulting, conceptual design and support for certifications. Experience with CC certification (Common Criteria) up to level EAL4+ and AVA_VAN5.
Customization and building of firmware for embedded Linux in customer products, including bootloader, kernel, userland and applications. Also customized tools for hardware commissioning and secure update process.
Development of firmware for microcontrollers with and without operating system. Implementation of customer-specific functions and protocols on e.g. STM32, ESP32, PIC and others.
Development and implementation of proprietary communication protocols for specific applications.
Design and development of user interfaces for various applications. Local control elements and user interfaces on the device and web interfaces for operation via network.
Adaptation and optimization of embedded Linux for specific requirements and hardware platforms.
Implementation of communication layers using standard protocols on different layers. IP communication with TLS or higher protocol suites such as Matter, RS485, Modbus, CAN bus, I2C, SPI, Bluetooth.
Cross-platform development so that applications or libraries can be used on different operating systems such as Windows, MacOS and Linux or within an operating system for different architectures such as ARM, Intel, AMD and PPC.
Development and customization of kernel drivers in the Linux kernel for the integration of new hardware components and functions.
Always keeping an eye on new technologies, end devices and market developments while networking with research centers and universities. We develop future-proof and platform-independent software based on Open Source components and with a strong focus on security.
Quality means doing the right thing, even when nobody asks. Security is not optional for us.
Agility for you and your projects. Without bloated bureaucracy and unnecessary management, we are quick and accurate in our implementation.
The Open Source idea is in our blood. When using Open Source in products, we find the right balance between contributing to the community and demarcating the client's intellectual property.
We offer our customers complete transparency from code to time recording.
Our toolbox
We always use exactly the right tool for a task instead of treating every task as a nail and work on it with the same hammer.

To give you a better picture of our work
We have accompanied the development of the connector as a highly secure device for digitization in the German healthcare system from the very beginning. Our task is to develop and maintain an extremely hardened Linux platform and to develop the application for controlling and configuring the basic services. The entire project is carried out as part of a certification according to Common Criteria with AVA-WAN5 and our site is thus regularly audited.
One of our first projects is still with us today. For 24 years, we have been working with our customer to develop a configuration service that connects networked embedded devices, each with different functions. We have supported this application over various product generations and regularly adapted it to new device versions. Over time, it has been refactored several times to the latest technology status and successfully rolled out in the field. At the same time, we are also involved in the development of the respective embedded devices.
The development, connection and secure communication of networked IoT devices is one of our everyday tasks. We have supported countless products and devices from a wide range of industries, from planning and implementation to long-term operation and regular maintenance through updates.
Software service
Outstanding services around Software development, support and consulting must provide answers to the six biggest challenges:
Decision-making processes often drag on for weeks and months. As soon as a decision has been made, things have to happen very quickly - you want to see progress as soon as possible (and rightly so!). More resources, more know-how, and quick results are required. Our developers are experienced in throwing themselves into every project without a lot of overhead work and quickly showing visible and yet sustainable results.
Highly specialized programs in particular run quietly in companies for years or even decades. Until an adjustment is necessary - however: Nobody knows who developed the program, where exactly the data comes from or what the program actually does. We help: We analyze, evaluate and familiarize ourselves with the old source code. The code can then be expanded, secured or even completely rewritten in coordination with the partner.
Secure software development is important to us. We believe that it is not enough to just work through compliance checklists. Criminals, hackers and sometimes competitors are not just theoretical threats. Highly secure software architecture and consistently protected software platforms are our speciality. For us, the requirements can never be high enough.
Most of our customers work with us as partners for years. They tell us their wishes and needs, we develop and advise on all topics related to software. Building trust, professionalism and consistently high quality are the pillars of our collaboration. Our lead developers are proud to quickly earn this trust with every new project.
Lots of colorful features, highly secure development, a fully trained, 24/7 on-call development team and the product live tomorrow, ideally, with a new change every day. If the pot of money were infinite, we would do it without any problems. The reality of our partners is usually different. And we know that very well. We minimize costs right from the start, communicate openly, advise on which features are really necessary, how costs can be reduced by using Open Source, for example, which meetings really have added value and how much documentation is useful.
With software, everything is possible. There are almost no limits to the digital world - the most successful companies in the world (the 'Big Five' such as Apple, Google, etc.) are based on an idea that became reality using software. Our job is to bring your ideas to life.
