RED SOFT Unveils Trusted Virtualization Suite for the First Time
The suite was presented at the Sfera Bezopasnosti (Security Sphere) exhibition in Moscow.
Russian developers have made significant progress in replacing foreign virtualization software over the past several years. They are now bringing integrated systems to market that include built-in tools designed to provide a high level of information security.
Securing Every Key Process
At the Sphere of Security exhibition at VDNH in Moscow, RED SOFT unveiled its latest trusted virtualization suite for the first time. The suite combines the RED VIRT virtualization platform with the AKKORD X-K and AKKORD KVM software products. According to the developers, the integrated system is designed to build a secure infrastructure. It enables organizations to manage computing resources, virtual workspaces and server workloads. It also checks virtual machines for integrity before they boot, provides reliable user authentication and audits user activity.
“At Sfera Bezopasnosti, we are presenting a trusted virtualization suite based on RED VIRT for the first time, along with several other RED SOFT developments. Our exhibition demonstrates how RED SOFT’s software and hardware solutions can be used to build modern, secure IT infrastructure,” said Mikhail Tolpyshkin, executive director of RED SOFT, during the industry event.
The developers also presented Slava Rossii (Glory of Russia), a digital integrated security platform. Built on the company’s software products, it is designed to monitor software and hardware environments, detect threats and assess their severity.
Accelerating the Shift to Russian Virtualization Systems
RED SOFT’s latest developments could attract substantial demand. Data presented at a CNews conference in April indicate that Russian customers’ large-scale shift to domestic virtualization systems began accelerating in 2026. The development of integrated Russian virtualization solutions helps businesses and government agencies reduce their dependence on foreign infrastructure software.
As for RED SOFT’s products, they can also be deployed in organizations with heightened information-security requirements. This is possible in part because their virtual-machine integrity-checking feature makes it significantly harder for unauthorized parties to compromise a system.
A High Level of Technical Maturity
Russia has been developing high-quality virtualization tools for several years. The technology is becoming more mature, and developers are increasingly combining individual components into integrated solutions. One notable example is VTB’s Kub Importozameshcheniya (Import Substitution Cube) software and hardware suite, unveiled in November 2023. It was built on VTB.Cloud, Astra Linux and Russian-made servers. According to the bank, a single appliance could host between 3,500 and 5,000 virtual machines.
In 2024, the Alabuga Special Economic Zone migrated its core infrastructure services to the Russian zVirt platform. The platform became the foundation for systems running on 1C and resource-intensive 3D design applications.
Large-Scale Deployments
By 2025, Russian systems were being used in genuinely large-scale deployments. Rostelecom, for example, migrated 15,000 virtual servers to the Russian BasisDynamix platform. The migration allowed the telecom operator to scale and optimize its IT infrastructure while reducing operating costs for software licensing and technical support.
In March 2026, the Russian zVirt platform was confirmed to meet Rosatom’s requirements for software used in critical information infrastructure. It had previously been approved for use at critical information infrastructure facilities under the Russian Federal Service for Technical and Export Control (FSTEC). This illustrates how products now undergo multiple checks before reaching the market, with their security capabilities needing to be validated under real-world conditions.
RED SOFT’s new solutions are well aligned with the needs of Russia’s domestic market. The widespread adoption of Russian platforms and the need to replace foreign products create opportunities for the company to expand its customer base.
