RTI Connext DDS Secure for autonomous systems

Built on the Connext Databus, and fully compliant with the OMG DDS Security Specification, Connext DDS Secure supports fine-grained security, providing the flexibility to implement capabilities required by their systems, such as authentication, encryption and access control without compromising performance.

Securing autonomous systems – such as those in medical, energy, transportation and defense industries – requires careful architecting of the entire distributed system from edge to cloud. This includes considerations for integrating diverse technology components from different project teams or third-party suppliers.

The Connext Databus is a data-centric framework for distributing and managing real-time data in intelligent systems. It allows applications and devices to work together as one, integrated system. As a software databus with a security framework, Connext DDS Secure takes a data-centric approach to securing data including:

• Interoperability between DDS Security applications based on the system’s data model.
• Optimised security and performance by authenticating and encrypting only sensitive data.
• Automatic discovery of each participant for peer-to-peer communications.
