It’s never been easier to get started with wolfSSL on Microsoft Windows using Visual Studio 2022! New VS2022-specific project and solutions files have been created for both the wolfssl/wolfcrypt core library, as well as the test and benchmark examples. These files are available immediately on GitHub and are included in the recent release. For long […]

Did you know that wolfSSL has been ported to and tested on Xilinx Versal hardware? There is support also in wolfSSL to make use of the Xilinx hardened crypto, enhancing both security and performance. Xilinx hardened crypto has accelerated crypto operations (SHA3-384 / AES-GCM / RSA / ECDSA) available on Ultrascale+ devices and is available […]

With wolfSSL release 5.7.4 we added the macro WOLFSSL_ARMASM_THUMB2. This macro can be defined to enable Thumb-2 ARM instruction optimizations and replaces the previous attempted autodetect on the macros __arm__ and __thumb__. Giving users complete control over which ARM assembly optimizations are compiled and used. When building for Thumb-2 the source files beginning with thumb2-* […]

Have you been trying out post-quantum algorithms in wolfSSL’s products? As you probably know, here at wolfSSL we have a step-wise approach to post-quantum algorithm integration: Define an API in wolfCrypt. Do an integration with an existing reference implementation (ie.: liboqs, PQM4, hash-sigs liblms, xmss-reference). Use these APIs in higher level libraries and products (ie.: […]

Our wolfSSL library has several post-quantum algorithms built in, but on their own, they aren’t always useful. How else can the PQC algorithms be used in production? Well, one of our areas of expertise is getting other open-source projects working with wolfSSL and then getting those integrations using post-quantum algorithms. We have post-quantum integrations with […]

wolfSSL now supports using the Trust Protection Unit (TPU), Modular Arithmetic Accelerator (MAA), and TRNG provided by Analog Devices MAX32666 and MAX32665 microcontrollers. The implementation can be seen in PR #7777 to wolfSSL, and is in wolfSSL starting at 5.7.4! The port offers various usage options: fully leveraging all hardware features, selectively enabling specific hardware […]

wolfSSL is adding support for X509 Attribute Certificates (ACERTs, for short), enabled with –enable-acert. This initial support includes reading, printing, and verifying. Furthermore, it uses our new ASN.1 template implementation, and supports RSA-PSS as well. But what is an X509 Attribute Certificate, and how does it differ from the more commonly encountered X509 Public Key […]

Most people know that wolfSSL supports being a PKCS11 consumer. It is easy to enable this with the –enable-pkcs11 configure time flag and then trying out the examples. Now, what most people don’t realize is that we also have the ability to be a PKCS11 provider!! This is via our library called wolfPKCS11. Check out […]

wolfSSL release 5.7.4 is now available, with exciting optimizations for ARM devices and enhancements to post-quantum cryptography algorithms. If you’re using wolfSSL on RISC-V, we’ve also included new performance enhancements specifically for RISC-V devices. Alongside these optimizations and new features, several important fixes were made. One notable fix involves the behavior of X509_STORE_add_cert() and X509_STORE_load_locations() […]
