              MySQL (#mysql) currently comes bundled with yaSSL to provide an option for SSL/TLS connections when using a database. A patch for securing MySQL with the wolfSSL embedded SSL/TLS library is available for MySQL version 8.0.0 here https://github.com/wolfSSL/mysql-patch. Along with an increased level of security comes the potential to use […]

Tired of using OpenSSL? Recently wolfSSL has been expanding our compatibility layer, which means that it soon will be even easier to replace OpenSSL with wolfSSL in existing projects. In some cases the replacement can be as easy as including <wolfssl/options.h> and linking to a wolfSSL library that has been compiled with –enable-opensslextra. For more […]

By Todd Ouska, wolfSSL The Message Queuing Telemetry Transport protocol, or MQTT, has become a favorite of Internet of Things (IoT) developers, and why not? It’s incredibly lightweight (on the order of a couple Kb for client implementations), has easy-to-use APIs, and is available for free under the Eclipse Public License (EPL). If your connected application is […]

You want TLS 1.3 support for connections. You want to avoid the steady stream of security updates required by using OpenSSL. You are concerned about the effect of quantum computers on security and want to use quantum safe crypto. You are performance driven, and want to leverage the latest performance enhancements and hardware crypto support. […]

wolfSSL is cited in the recent ROBOT Attack by Böck, Somorovsky, and Young.  The paper notes that wolfSSL only gives a weak oracle without a practical attack but this is still a flaw.  We’ve posted a fix for this and a general release will be available next week.  Please note that wolfSSL has disabled static […]

We decided to benchmark our wolfCrypt/wolfSSL libraries on Apple’s new A11 processor in their latest iPhone 8 / 8 Plus and iPhone X. This processor features six ARMv8 CPU cores (2 high-performance 2.53GHz and 4 high-efficiency 1.42GHz). The benchmarks use wolfSSL’s latest speedups for ARMv8 crypto extensions and single precision math to demonstrate our exceptional […]
