ACCE Cybersecurity and Software Update Service
Ampex Patches & Updates Your TuffServ / TuffCORD / miniRv2 Software
Ampex now offers a cybersecurity and software update service for our TuffServ, TuffCORD, and miniRv2 products. If you own one of these systems, Ampex will help you stay on top of cybersecurity enhancements, patches, interoperability issues, bugs, and latent vulnerabilities in the Ampex Common Compute Environment (ACCE), including Red Hat Enterprise Linux and other third-party software (drivers, etc.).
Keeping Your Ampex Systems Secure and Up-to-Date
Avoid the worry and hassle of ensuring your systems remain secure and up-to-date! The decision to install each update is up to you, but if you choose, Ampex will assume the responsibility of preforming the updates or providing you with the requisite update files on a monthly or quarterly basis tailored to your mission needs. This includes working with you to assess the implications of applying or deferring each patch. As a value-added feature, Ampex can test the updates in-house on a hardware / digital twin of your existing baseline prior to shipping. The periodic updates include comprehensive documentation for service history and security compliance.
Ampex currently offers FIPS 140-2 and FIPS 197 compliant systems and will soon offer more advanced encryption and onboard cybersecurity solutions.
