HERNDON, USA: InZero Systems, Herndon VA, has created an Android tablet - - the "WorkPlay Tablet™" - - with two hardware-separated operating systems (OSs). Operating code in one (including any malware) cannot access the other.

One OS is called the "WorkZone," the other the "PlayZone," recognizing that tablets are increasingly used for both enterprise and personal activity. The WorkPlay Technology™ thus solves the mobile device dilemma whereby enterprise data is exposed to malware introduced through personal use.

The two OSs do not share resources that could possibly cause cross-contamination, distinguishing the technology from methods such as sandbox/containerization, virtualization, profile separation. This critical hardware-enforced separation of resources has been independently confirmed by Cygnacom Solutions Inc. of McLean, VA. WorkPlay Technology™ adds to the security offered by such other methods.

Each Zone can be managed autonomously and contain separate Android security applications, as desired. InZero also offers firmware-embedded Mobile Device Management for maximum IT administrative control in a Zone. Switching between Zones takes a few seconds by touching a switch icon. The Tablet also embodies additional security features such as AES256 encryption and a secure boot.
