Hi! As of this writing, wolfSSL, which is our small embedded SSL library, supports all of the most commonly used OpenSSL functions. As time goes on, we are incrementally improving our OpenSSL compatibility. Our process for improvement is driven by two forces. Firstly, we respond to customer requirements. Our customers migrate from OpenSSL to wolfSSL for a variety […]

Hi! We have embedded wolfSSL into Memcache and are now making it available to beta testers. There are no obligations for beta testers, so if you want to just review our changes to the source, that is fine. The first beta will not include client libraries, and we currently don’t know which ones should be supported, […]

We`re considering adding Windows Kernel compatibility to wolfSSL. This means that our embedded SSL library would run in Kernel mode and use either TDI or WinSocK Kernel. We`re not sure at this point whether we should use TDI or WinSocK Kernel. The advantage of this project may include performance enhancement for device driver implementers that […]

Read MoreMore TagyaSSL/wolfSSL have no renegotiaton vulnerability
Hi! We`ve been getting a number of questions about the high profile vulnerabilities in OpenSSL, GnuTLS, NSS and mod_ssl.This vulnerability is based on a potentially insecure SSL early feature that yaSSL chose to never support in the first place. As such, yaSSL/wolfSSL was never insecure. More details on the issue can be found below: From […]
