TLDR:  wolfSSL can run over CAN Bus.  This means wolfSSL can secure CAN Bus, which is typically insecure.  As such, you can now authenticate over CAN Bus and encrypt over CAN Bus. The CAN (Controller Area Network) bus is a common data bus used in vehicles for onboard microcontrollers to communicate to each other. Modern […]
