Civil Infrastructure Platform: Industrial Grade Linux
We create and evolve industrial grade Linux for long living products in civil infrastructure and industrial automation.
Civil Infrastructure Platform: Industrial Grade Linux at 10
How do physical systems maintain software security across 20- to 40-year lifecycles? A new report from LF Research and the Civil Infrastructure Platform (CIP), in celebration of the project’s 10 year anniversary, reveals how open source collaboration solves critical longevity and regulatory challenges.
Our mission is commonly filling functional gaps, and improving the non-functional features, such as security and real-time support. Furthermore, we commonly extend hardware support for the aforementioned domains and we share efforts in super-long-term maintenance of the Linux kernel and selected packages. Domains include:
Transportation (Trains and Railway Infrastructure)
Power Generation and Power Distribution
Management of Buildings and Cities
Communication Systems
Industrial Control and Supervision
Healthcare Equipment
Support Civil Infrastructure Platform
The success of the Civil Infrastructure Platform is due to the contributions of our developer community and our members. Learn how your organization can contribute to the project.
Linux Kernel & Core Packages
The Civil Infrastructure Platform project (CIP) provides Super-Long-Term Stable (SLTS) kernels with a maintenance period of ten years. This is done in close collaboration with the Linux kernel community.
Security / IEC-62443-4-1/4-2
The CIP Security Working Group (SWG), along with other CIP working group members, has focused on establishing a secure development process and enhancing security capabilities within CIP.
Automated System Updates
Automated system update for embedded devices in fields is more important year by year due to the necessity of continuous vulnerability fixes, enhancing functionality, etc.
