Linux and Open Source – At our core since 2001<\/h3>\n

Nord Technology has worked professionally with Linux and open source since 2001. For us, open source is not just an operating system choice, but a strategic platform that enables us to deliver secure and future-proof solutions for IoT gateways<\/a>, edge computing<\/a>, and industrial systems. <\/p>\n

Interest in Linux and open source is growing. Many companies and public sector organizations are seeking greater independence from Big Tech while requirements for IT security, cybersecurity, and data protection continue to increase. NIS2 and the Cyber Resilience Act play a key role in this shift by introducing demands for documentation, lifecycle management, and secure-by-design.<\/p>\n

Hardware has become part of the security architecture<\/h3>\n

Our core focus is industrial hardware, and today hardware is an active part of the security architecture. It is no longer enough to install secure software on an arbitrary platform. Stable operation, secure boot, signed firmware, and long product lifecycles are essential to building solutions that are documentable, updatable, and compliant throughout their entire lifespan.<\/p>\n

When hardware and Linux are designed as a single integrated platform, it becomes possible to build systems with high uptime, controlled operations, and a consistent security model – even in distributed edge and IoT deployments.<\/p>\n
