Powering secunet’s Secure Edge Platform for Healthcare

Accelerating Healthcare Innovation with the Cyberus Hypervisor
secunet, Germany’s leading provider of high-assurance IT security solutions, partnered with Cyberus to develop their next-generation medical connect Edge Gateway Platform. By integrating the Cyberus Hypervisor as the secure virtualization layer, secunet delivered a product with a smaller footprint, stronger security, and a faster time-to-market.

Meeting Healthcare Market Demands with Confidence
To meet the high security and compliance standards of the healthcare sector, secunet required:
A secure, auditable virtualization base
High performance and reliability
Technical expertise and long-term support
Cyberus delivered on all three, allowing the secunet product team to focus on delivering customer value without worrying about bugs, integration complexity, or security gaps.

The Challenge: Security Without Complexity
During the early product phase, secunet evaluated several alternatives:
QEMU-based stacks proved too complex and difficult to secure
Microkernel hypervisors lacked flexibility, tooling, and hardware support
They needed a partner who could provide both a secure base and fast, pragmatic engineering support.
