wolfSSL Support for ESP-IDF and ESP32-WROOM-32
Are you a user of the ESP-IDF(Espressif IoT Development Framework)? If so, you will be happy to know that wolfSSL has support and example projects in the wolfSSL embedded SSL/TLS library for ESP-IDF.
ESP-IDF is intended for rapidly developing Internet-of-Things (IoT) applications, with Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, power management and several other system features.
The ESP-IDF “Get Started” document can be found here:
https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-idf/en/latest/get-started/index.html
In order to use wolfSSL under ESP-IDF, you need to deploy wolfSSL source files into the IDE. Please see the README.md placed in the “IDE/Espressif/ESP-IDF/” directory of wolfSSL source tree. In addition to that, example projects including TLS server/client, wolfCrypt test and benchmark are also provided. For building these examples, please see each README.md in example projects directories. When working with ESP-IDF, wolfSSL worked with the ESP32-WROOM-32 device.
wolfSSL also has a page that elaborates upon the use of Espressif with wolfSSL and the Espressif hardware devices, located here: https://www.wolfssl.com/docs/espressif/
Our wolfSSL master branch can be cloned here:
https://github.com/wolfSSL/wolfssl
The README.md can be found here:
https://github.com/wolfSSL/wolfssl/blob/master/IDE/Espressif/ESP-IDF/README.md
Additional examples for wolfSSL TLS Client/Server and wolfCrypt test/benchmark applications can be found here:
https://github.com/wolfSSL/wolfssl/tree/master/IDE/Espressif/ESP-IDF/examples
This support is currently located in our GitHub master branch, and will roll into the next stable release of wolfSSL as well.

SecureMark TLS and wolfSSL
Ever wonder exactly how much power your crypto is consuming? How long the battery of your device will last after adding in security? wolfSSL has worked with EEMBC to plug wolfSSL into SecureMark TLS for benchmarking a hardware’s performance and power consumption (https://github.com/eembc/securemark-tls). One of the algorithms benchmarked with SecureMark is ECDSA which makes up the bulk of the power and time taken for TLS 1.3 and TLS 1.2 handshakes using ECDSA cipher suites.
If you have any questions or run into any issues, contact us at facts@wolfssl.com, or call us at +1 425 245 8247.

Excellent wolfBoot GitHub Fork
wolfSSL often recognizes the work of our amazing community through GitHub. Today, we’re giving visibility to the excellent work of Kasper Kyllönen and Dr. Ian Oliver, on their fork of the wolfBoot GitHub repository. Visit their fork and check out their changes here: https://github.com/nokia/wolfBoot
Their wolfBoot fork has some Raspberry Pi related improvements for testing, measured boot and debugging.
wolfBoot is a portable secure bootloader solution that offers firmware authentication and firmware update mechanisms. It can be easily ported and integrated in existing embedded software projects to provide a secure firmware update mechanism. Check out our GitHub page for our wolfBoot repository, as well as repositories of our other products!
