Xilinx “Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC’s” Benchmarking with wolfSSL
Benchmark values of the wolfSSL embedded SSL/TLS library running on Xilinx boards, including the ZCU102, have been collected and are up for viewing. Our friends over at Xilinx have a white paper posted that goes into detail about the benchmark values here https://www.xilinx.com/support/documentation/white_papers/wp512-accel-crypto.pdf. This shows how much faster applications can perform secure operations when incorporating […]

It’s common to hear the term asymmetric or symmetric cryptography but what does this actually mean? A brief explanation is that asymmetric cryptography is cryptography that has two keys which is why it is also called public-key cryptography. Both keys in the algorithm are linked to each other in a mathematical way, which allows for […]
