EpicOS: our operative system for trading_
Why we chose a Linux kernel-based system for EpicOS
A Linux-based open source operating system is free and open computer management software developed and maintained by a community of programmers. The Linux kernel, the heart of the system, manages hardware resources and basic operations. Users can freely modify, distribute and use the source code, promoting transparency, customization and collaboration.
Examples of Linux distributions include Ubuntu, Fedora and Debian.
What are some advantages of EpicOS on Linux kernel?
The importance of security, stability and upgradability
EpicOS leverages the robust architecture of the Linux kernel, reducing the risk of vulnerabilities. Permission management and privilege separation limit access to critical files. Because it is open source, the code is constantly reviewed by the community, allowing rapid detection and correction of vulnerabilities. EpicOS can integrate advanced security tools such as SELinux and AppArmor to implement strict access control policies.
SECURITY
The Linux kernel is known for its excellent memory management, ensuring smooth operation and reducing the risk of crashes. Mature and stable drivers, developed through its large user base, improve hardware compatibility and overall stability. In addition, Linux's process isolation ensures that a crash of one application will not affect the entire system, improving overall stability.
STABILITY
EpicOS can use package management systems such as APT or YUM, which simplify the installation, removal, and updating of applications and system libraries. The rolling release model allows for continuous updates without the need to reinstall the entire operating system. With support for dynamic patches, the Linux kernel can be updated without the need for a system reboot, reducing downtime.
UPGRADABILITY
Reliance on the use of a VPN for access to centralised data
(and on-demand applications over a private network)
Data Encryption
Secure Authentication
Safe Access to Centralised Data
On-demand Application Protection
Reducing Risks of Intrusion
Data Integrity
Operational Continuity
Central Management and Reporting
A VPN (Virtual Private Network) encrypts all traffic between the user's device and the VPN server, protecting data from being intercepted during transit. Advanced encryption protocols such as OpenVPN, IKEv2/IPsec or WireGuard are used, guaranteeing a high level of security.

Crucial details...
Two-factor authentication (2FA) adds an additional layer of security by requiring users to provide two forms of verification before gaining access. Digital certificates are used for server and client authentication, ensuring that only authorised devices can establish a VPN connection.
2_ SECURE AUTHENTICATION
VPNs create a secure tunnel through which traffic passes, preventing unauthorised third parties from accessing centralised data. Users can securely access corporate data from any geographical location, reducing the risks associated with the use of unsecured public networks.
3_ SAFE ACCESS TO CENTRALISED DATA
Applications accessed via VPN are protected by secure connections, reducing the risk of man-in-the-middle attacks and other threats. In addition, VPNs can be configured to ensure that only authorised users have access to specific applications, improving overall security.
4_ ON-DEMAND APPLICATION PROTECTION
Many VPN solutions include a built-in firewall that monitors and controls incoming and outgoing traffic, blocking suspicious connections. Some VPN services also offer additional protection against malware and other cyber threats, helping to keep users' devices secure.
5_ REDUCING RISKS OF INTRUSION
VPNs use integrity verification techniques to ensure that data has not been altered during transit. Intrusion detection systems can be integrated to monitor VPN traffic and detect abnormal activity or unauthorised access attempts.
6_ DATA INTEGRITY
VPNs provide reliable and stable connections, ensuring that users can access data and applications continuously and without interruption. Many corporate solutions include failover and redundancy mechanisms to maintain access even in the event of hardware failures or network interruptions.
7_ OPERATIONAL CONTINUITY
Advanced VPN solutions offer centralised management tools that allow VPN usage monitoring, traffic analysis and security reporting. This functionality is crucial to ensure compliance with corporate security policies and to respond quickly to potential threats.
8_ CENTRAL MANAGEMENT AND REPORTING
In conclusion_
EpicOS, based on the Linux kernel, offers significant advantages in terms of security, stability and upgradability. The robust security architecture, proven stability and easy upgradability make EpicOS an excellent choice for all traders looking for a reliable and secure operating system.
The use of VPNs to access centralised data and on-demand applications over a private network ensures a safe, secure and always available operating environment.
