RECENT BLOG NEWS

Hi!  We`ve had recent requests for SNI in wolfSSL.  SNI is well documented on wikipedia here:  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Server_Name_Indication. If you are interested in using SNI with wolfSSL, then please contact us and let us know.  We may be able to add you to our beta list.  Contact us at info@yassl.com

Version 2.3.0 of the wolfSSL embedded SSL/TLS library has been released and is now available for download.  This release contains bug fixes and new features. Changes include the following (with details and comments for each listed below): – AES-GCM crypto and cipher suites– “make test” cipher suite checks– Subject AltName processing– Command line support for […]

Hi!  As you may know, we`ve released our GCM code recently.  Our next major open source release, coming in September, will include our ECC implementation.  This will bring wolfSSL into Suite B compliance.  If you need our ECC code before our next release, just contact us at info@yassl.com and we`ll get it into your hands.

We have added the Galois/Counter Mode for AES to wolfSSL. It adds an Authenticated Data with Associated Data (AEAD) cipher to TLS v1.2 where the cipher provides its own message authentication. The following cipher suites are available: * TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384* TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256* TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384* TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256* TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384* TLS_ECDH_ECDSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384* TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256* TLS_ECDH_ECDSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256* TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384* TLS_ECDH_RSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384* TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256* TLS_ECDH_RSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256 We offer four different implementations […]

yaSSL has released a new case study highlighting how one of our customers, CCww, is using the wolfSSL embedded SSL library to secure GSM / GPRS modem modules. This case study highlights the key requirements CCww had for securing their modules, how wolfSSL was used as a solution, and summarizes CCww’s thoughts on the project. […]

We wanted to remind our readers to enter our sweepstakes for a chance to win a New Apple iPad (16GB, Wi-Fi). The sweepstakes will be coming to a close August 1, 2012 (just 9 days away!). For a chance to win, just take our short SSL survey (10 questions) at the following link. The contest […]

As the first post in our PKCS series, we will be looking at PKCS #1. PKCS #1 is the RSA Cryptography Standard and is defined in RFC 3447 (http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3447). It defines standards for implementing public and private keys based on the RSA algorithm including cryptographic primitives, encryption schemes, signature schemes, and ASN.1 syntax for representing […]

PKCS is a set of “Public Key Cryptography Standards” which were devised and published by RSA Security, Inc. beginning in the 1990s. The PKCS standards encapsulate everything from the RSA algorithm to password-based encryption to standards for certificate requests and cryptographic tokens. Because many of these standards are directly related to SSL/TLS and the wolfSSL […]

Would you like a chance to win a New Apple iPad (16GB, Wi-Fi) directly from yaSSL? We’re conducting a short SSL survey (10 questions) and giving anyone who completes the survey a chance to enter into our drawing. The prize drawing will be held August 1, 2012, and the contest is limited to one entry […]

yaSSL has released a case study highlighting how one of our customers, Cinterion, is using wolfSSL to secure machine-to-machine (M2M) communication modules. This case study highlights the key requirements Cinterion had for securing Machine-to-Machine modules, how wolfSSL was used as a solution to easily secure these modules, and summarizes Cinterion’s thoughts on the project. Machine-to-Machine […]
