About kry10
IN THE NEXT FIVE YEARS, 75 BILLION DEVICES WILL BE CONNECTED TO THE INTERNET.
Kry10’s goal is to bring software scale, speed, and assurance to connected devices that are designed to solve real world problems. The Kry10 Operating System (KOS) is taking advantage of and integrating the innovations that are occurring in hardware, software and communication networks.
At the end of the day, we are here to help you succeed. We measure our own performance by your success.
The journey to build a new OS and an environment around it is not an easy one and takes time. We are getting very close to availability and if your device needs secure communications, controls, and flexible management, then please contact us to see if we are a good fit. We are working closely with a smaller number of clients for now with general availability as it is ready.
