Scylos ZeroCore is an endpoint security solution that replaces traditional persistent operating systems with an ephemeral execution substrate. The product eliminates stateful operating systems at the endpoint, removing OS bloat, configuration drift, and escalating security requirements that typically drive hardware refresh cycles. The platform provides centralized governance across endpoint devices regardless of age, enabling organizations to extend hardware lifecycles by multiple years. By removing accumulated OS overhead, the lightweight runtime delivers faster boot times and improved endpoint responsiveness on existing hardware. The ephemeral architecture allows older hardware to meet modern security and compliance requirements through centrally governed execution environments. Organizations can recommission previously retired hardware and delay refresh cycles without compromising security posture. The solution addresses endpoint obsolescence by eliminating OS-driven hardware deprecation, reducing electronic waste while maintaining uniform security standards across the entire device fleet. The stateless design removes the need for traditional OS maintenance and configuration management at individual endpoints.
