    The system of netPI is based on an AppArmor-secured Yocto Linux build. The device boots secure, and only allows system changes with integrity- checked Hilscher software. User access is granted via a web browser over https-secured connections only. The open source software „Docker“ by Docker, Inc. allows the user to execute own applications on the secured Linux operating system of the Edge Gateways while all protection mechanisms are fully preserved.
