Cybersecurity for Avionics

Does your device need DO-178 based TLSSecure Boot, or Cryptography?

wolfSSL products are used by every branch of the US armed services – deployed in everything from tanks and missile systems to satellites and aircraft.

Providing secure boot and cryptography software for avionics systems, wolfSSL supports complete DO-178C DAL A certification, offering DO-178 wolfCrypt as well as FIPS compliance, as a commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) solution for avionics applications. We also provide DAL A wolfBoot secure boot for avionics. For enhancing communications security on aircraft, we offer DTLS 1.3 for ensuring data integrity and confidentiality while mitigating MITM, relay, DoS and spoofing attacks.

Does Your Avionics System Need Secure Boot or Cryptography?

wolfSSL’s embedded (D)TLS library, secure boot, and cryptography are lightweight, portable, C-language-based products which run seamlessly on DO-178 operating systems like SYSGO, Wind River VxWorks, INTEGRITY, and DDC-I Deos.  All of our products are also portable to bare metal and custom OS’s. This suitability is primarily due to its size, speed, and feature set. wolfSSL supports industry standards up to the current TLS 1.3 and DTLS 1.3. Additionally, it supports DO-178 secure boot on Intel’s 11th Gen Intel® Core™ Tiger Lake platform with TPM support and DO-178 certified artifacts.
