[aklug] Kaspersky developing their own OS for SCADA

Thank you Tim! I truly enjoy "lurking" on this mailing list and learning.
Anyway, I was searching for SCADA when I found this:

Kaspersky is developing their own OS for mission critical ICS. I like some
of the points made in the comments below too...

Interesting idea, but looks like embedded OS with minimal compatibility, at

And you’re writing a secure OS in C/C++. What could possibly go wrong.
