Distributed Systems: Another of Linchpin's specialty knowledge areas is in designing and developing distributed systems. If your products have an automatic update feature, or require secure messaging or digital rights control or management, we may be able to help you. We have previous experience in command and control systems ranging in operation from between buildings, up to internationally. We can implement features to allow your product to grow beyond its current scope, without your developers needing to retrain and refocus from their niche area.
Education and Research: Linchpin Labs also run training courses and informational seminars. We have acquired a great deal of specialised and focused knowledge much of which is difficult to obtain. We would like to share this knowledge with your developers. We can train or advise your staff on kernel or cross platform development, distributed solutions, or modern security developments. We both have general seminars, and can tailor more specific knowledge presentations depending on your needs. If you have a specific question that you would like answered we can research and present that too.

Development: Our creative development team can help you design and implement large or small software systems. We specialise in software solutions that have security, low-level, embedded or distributed computing as primary components and concerns. Our staff has a wide range of experience ranging from cross-platform development to Windows networking, file systems and filter drivers.
Research: The Linchpin Labs research team may be able to solve that problem that has been stumping your team for weeks, or perhaps we can offer an alternative method for achieving the desired goal and get the project moving. Research is often a costly undertaking for companies, as it requires significant investment in hardware and knowledge. We have already made that investment and want to help. We have specialised research equipment for a variety of topics as well as years of experience in finding unorthodox solutions to seemingly insurmountable problems.
Custom Security Solutions: Companies often find off-the-shelf security solutions to be unsuitable for their needs. Be it due to a non-intuitive user interface, a limited set of functionality, or non-scalable control options, many currently-available solutions just miss the mark. We can help fill this frustrating gap in the market. We have specialised knowledge of security systems and design, as well as the implications of networked command-and-control systems. We can design and create a bespoke security solution tailored for your specific requirements. Why settle for someone else's solution?
Systems Level/Embedded Development: Linchpin Labs have long and varied experience in developing kernel-based software. Software running this closely with the operating system itself needs to be very carefully designed and implemented, as there are many traps for the unwary. Cross-architecture development can also cause unexpected issues. Our experience allows us to avoid many of these pitfalls to quickly and effectively implement a robust solution to your problem.
