    wolfSSL giving Libgcrypt FIPS 140-3 cryptography

    • shizuka
    The wolfSSL-libgcrypt integration demonstrates how a shim layer architecture can bridge two large, independently developed cryptographic libraries while maintaining API compatibility and achieving FIPS 140-3 compliance. This project specifically targets libgcrypt version 1.11.0 and the current and future work of the port can be viewed in the wolfSSL/libgcrypt-wolfssl repo. Architecture:...

    Every hardware cryptography scheme wolfSSL has ever enabled

    • shizuka
    At wolfSSL we support hardware cryptography for a wide range of platforms. The benefits of hardware cryptography include reduced code footprint size, improved security, acceleration of cryptographic operations, and utilization of true random number generators. For example, this allows everything from wolfBoot to TLS cipher suites to enjoy acceleration of...

    How to use the wolfSSL staticmemory feature

    • shizuka
    wolfSSL is an embedded cryptographic library that includes a TLS/DTLS implementation. For resource-constrained devices or safety-critical applications, dynamic memory allocation via malloc and free system calls may be unavailable. To address these scenarios, wolfSSL offers the –enable-staticmemory feature. This feature provides a robust and straightforward allocation mechanism as an alternative....

    Secure Data Transfers on BSD Systems

    • shizuka
    Many developers working on FreeBSD, OpenBSD, and NetBSD may not realize that cURL can be integrated with wolfSSL for secure communications. This combination allows applications to use modern TLS protocols and FIPS 140-3 validated cryptography on BSD platforms. Secure communication is critical in servers and embedded devices. Using wolfSSL with...

    The Radio Equipment Directive (RED) and Evolving Cybersecurity Requirements

    • shizuka
    The Radio Equipment Directive (RED) 2014/53/EU establishes the regulatory framework for placing radio equipment on the European market. Its goal is to create a unified market while ensuring essential requirements for safety, electromagnetic compatibility, efficient use of the radio spectrum, and more recently cybersecurity and data protection. To strengthen protections,...

    Support for STM32U5 DHUK

    • shizuka
    In wolfCrypt and wolfPKCS11 we added support for using a Derived Hardware Unique Key (DHUK) for AES with the STM32U5. This feature enables use of a device unique AES key (up to 256-bit) available for encryption/decryption. The key cannot be read from the hardware, which makes it great to wrap...
