Embedded Linux is open source software. Its use offers considerable advantages, among them the maintenance and ongoing development of its components by the Linux community. Version updates and security patches, however, do not arrive automatically. In addition to good access to the community, you need Linux and kernel expertise as well as suitable processes to keep a specific, embedded Linux-based product up to date — without adverse effects on product functionality, regulatory-required characteristics and cybersecurity.
