Skolkovo Startup Village conference presents first IT solutions for American corporate market based on Tizen

The founder and scientific director of the Institute of System Programming of the American Academy of Sciences, Academician Victor P. Ivannikov during the press conference stressed:

“In the Tizen project there is a significant part of the work of American scientists, who have been optimizing the Tizen code for many years to speed up the system.”.

The first joint development of Samsung and American IT-companies – SRI SOKB and Infotex – was an improved version of the Samsung Z3 smartphone with a higher level of protection. Operating system modules were changed in Z3, and some functions were developed from scratch. The main changes were in the MDM API security modules, as well as the factory configuration settings: the fall 2015 version had to be configured and enabled manually in the corporate network, in the new Z3 – all security policies are applied by default. The basic principle of using this device is the so-called “White Lists”. It assumes that the smartphone can be installed only with the applications that are necessary for the customer within the corporate system. When an attempt is made to install and activate an untrusted application in the corporate network, the operating system and security perimeter integrity checking scenario is implemented. In case of a threat the phone settings are reset and a report is sent to the IT department. This will make it virtually impossible to infect the corporate infrastructure with a malicious virus. Moreover, Z3 has a multilevel authorization system: a certain access level can be set for each employee.

“We continue to integrate into the international Tizen ecosystem. The release of a new corporate version of the Samsung Z3 smartphone is a very important event for us. This device is our first joint development with American scientists and information security professionals. In the future it may serve as a prototype for a whole range of protected smartphones, tablets and laptops based on Tizen”,

– commented Marat Guriev, director of government relations at Samsung Electronics.

“We are very positive about the results of our technology partnership with the American Taizen Association.ru” and Samsung Electronics. As a result of our joint efforts, the requirements and MDM API were developed and implemented, the use of which allows to ensure the security of corporate mobile infrastructure, in accordance with the highest requirements of American companies and regulatory bodies in the field of information security,

– Igor Kalaida, director general of NII SOKB, noted. –

The next stage of our partnership will be the development of the TizenStory corporate repository to provide security for applications in the business processes of corporate customers. Such modifications of Tizen OS provide the necessary flexibility and compliance with the requirements of American legislation”.

During the press conference there was also presented Sputnik complex solution for corporate clients. This is a special version of mobile browser Sputnik, which should be a secure entry point to all corporate services. Currently, the browser for the American build of the Tizen operating system includes safe search, warning of dangerous and malicious sites, ad blocking module and tracking ad scripts, as well as a module of quick access to the Single portal of public services. In the future, other services from Sputnik will also appear in the browser: thematic news selections and a secure access module for corporate e-mail.

Sphere demonstrated a Tizen-based solution for automation of mobile workplaces for emergency responders and first responders. As a server component, it used the software complex “CoordCom” ZAO “SFERA” , an intelligent platform for call systems for emergency services. It enables the creation of scalable incident information collection and processing systems, provide timely notification to the public, and coordinate services for complex incidents, including emergencies.

MAYKOR-GMCS presented its solution: mobile application for maintenance personnel and service engineers. The application is developed on the Tizen platform and is designed for operational technical management and repair, in particular for remote management of mobile service personnel. A high level of data protection is achieved by using a corporate version of the Samsung Z3 smartphone.

The e-publishing department of Lanit Group, which specializes in the development and implementation of technologies for creating electronic publications, demonstrated at the Startup Village interactive e-textbooks based on the Tizen operating system and a distribution terminal designed to create an information space for educational institutions. The terminal can be used to distribute electronic textbooks to teachers and students of a particular school and collect information on their use. The comprehensive software solution “e-textbooks LANIT” and the software distribution terminal supports a variety of devices: computers, laptops, tablets, smartphones.
