According to him, the problem from the point of view of information security that it is still "the good old Linux" monolithic kernel from 5 million lines of code. the "to Fix all security issues in this pile of code is the work of mankind for the next 30 years," I'm sure Duhulow.

He noted that in Linux there are many vulnerabilities and many of them will still be found. the "In our case, the system is modular and microkernel", — said the expert. He compared developing the OS with Lego, from bricks to raise anything, with each module operates strictly within the permitted scenarios.

"If your application goes outside of the script, we tell him "no". It is a completely different system. On this OS we received more than 20 patents, among them there are European, American and Russian", — concluded the General Director of "Kaspersky Lab".
