The wolfSSL ecosystem consists of several software modules and components, each with specific goals and purposes. We make sure all our software products are engineered using the quality standards required by our process. Each step in the software lifetime is regulated by strict rules and testing criteria (including stringent fuzz based testing) that ensure the […]

What Is the Difference Between HSM, TPM, Secure Enclave, and Secure Element or Hardware Root of Trust
Hardware Security Module (HSM) A hardware security module (HSM) is a physical computing device that protects digital key management and key exchange, and performs encryption operations for digital signatures, authentication and other cryptographic functions. It can be thought of as a “trusted” network computer for performing cryptographic operations. A HSM is secure because it: Is […]

Read MoreMore TagPlatform Security Architecture (PSA) Crypto API support in wolfSSL
One of the reasons for wolfSSL ubiquity is its easiness to support a wide range of platforms, interfaces and hardware accelerations. Now wolfSSL makes another step in this direction supporting an additional cryptographic interface, the Platform Security Architecture (PSA) crypto API. This means that everything wolfSSL supports (DTLS 1.2, TLS 1.3, etc.) can now leverage […]
Read MoreMore TagExpanding CAAM Use
We have been expanding wolfSSL’s use of NXPs CAAM (Cryptographic Acceleration and Assurance Module) on i.MX8 devices. Now it is able to use black keys with RSA operations on one of NXP’s Linux setups. To achieve this we expanded the current CAAM driver some and will post links and benchmarks shortly. Using black key’s with […]

Read MoreMore TagWhy replace NSS with wolfSSL in Firefox?
Here at wolfSSL, we love doing integrations. What you might not know about Mozilla’s Firefox and NSS is that all of the cryptography happens underneath their PKCS#11 layer which is a software component called the “NSS Internal PKCS #11 Module”. It has a “Software Security Device.” As you can see in the user interface screenshot […]
