HIGHLIGHTS News in Brief CodeMeter Embedded 2.32 Investing in our future R&D is at the core of our DNA The latest version of our static library specifically designed for embedded systems is now sup- porting MIPS implementations, porting to ARM64 platforms, VxWorks SR 06x0 versions, and BlackBerry QNX 7.0. We are building our new head offices and the House of IT Security as part of our commit- ment to creating attractive workplaces and a physical beacon for IT security. For the formal laying of the cornerstone, Dr. Frank Mentrup and Prof. Dr. Joern Mueller-Quade from the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology were joined by the Mayor of Karlsruhe as our esteemed guests. We have just embarked on two new projects, KoMiK, which pushes for innovative communica- tion and co-operation models to support digital collaboration in SMEs, and DigiFAB4KMU, whose goal is to create a digital twin of the buildings we are erecting and protect the digital assets involved. SPS in Nuremberg in November will mark the showdown of ALESSIO, the two-year project we ran with Infineon, the Fraunhofer Institute, Giesecke & Devrient, Siemens, and the Technical University of Munich, Germany that re- sulted in the development of updatable security solutions for embedded systems in long-lifespan applications. CodeMeter License Central 3.30 The latest release of CodeMeter License Central includes an expanded license histo- ry that captures all actions throughout the license lifecycle, supports the fundamental operations for programming TMR (Triple Mode Redundancy) licenses, and simplifies the creation of update items. License Central Protecting the environment is a top priority We are redesigning all of our product packag- ing and selecting suppliers who are strongly committed to green waste circuits. Our new CmDongles packaging solutions are not just aesthetically pleasing, but also sustainable and more stable to accommodate all our form factors. Trustworthiness is king The white paper on “Managing and Assessing Trustworthiness for IIoT in Practice”, recently published by the Industrial Internet Consortium and co-authored by our very own Marcellus Buchheit, underlines the importance of under- standing and building justified confidence in the key IIoT system characteristics of safety, security, privacy, resilience, and reliability. Security Privacy Safety Resilience 14 Reliability Training the computer scientists of tomorrow Our partnership with the Baden-Wuerttemberg Cooperative State University (DHBW) enters a new stage: For several years, we have been offering dual courses in computer science. With the start of the new academic year, we are also participating in dual training for software engineers specializing in business informatics. The results are staggering: 80% of graduates from the dual study courses sign permanent employment contracts long before the end of their studies! state current minimum target Latest news from Japan CodeMeter in distributed manufacturing Our newest regional team is on fire: They are now active members of both the Edgecross Consortium and the Robot Revolution & Indus- trial IoT Initiative, which will spark mean- ingful technical discussions and business opportunities. Wibu-Systems is kicking off a collaboration with EOS to build a DRM solution for their 3D printers. Manufacturers of spare parts will then be able to protect their intellectual property, safeguard data confidentiality and integrity, and fully trace and tighten up their digital supply chain. Siemens selects CodeMeter Siemens is using the latest generation of CmDongles to realize new licensing models for the SIMIT simulation platform and to protect PROFINET bus analyzers.
