Rapid prototyping with Arduino and wolfSSL

    • RapidPrototyping wolfSSL v5.7.2 on Arduino

    Do you have an idea for a project but want a quick prototype without the hassle of a custom board? We’re happy to announce that our latest wolfSSL v5.7.2 library is now available in the Arduino Registry for rapid prototypes.

    Just type “wolfSSL” in the Library Manager of the Arduino IDE. If nothing happens right away, check to see if the IDE is downloading updates as indicated in the lower-right corner of the app and wait for the process to complete.

    There are TLS Client and Server apps, as well as a bare-bones Hello World that just prints the wolfSSL version. See the bottom of the list in Files – Examples – “Examples from Custom Libraries” in the IDE.

    Just edit the SSID and Password:

    All of the source code is available at: https://github.com/wolfSSL/Arduino-wolfSSL. We also have a more detailed Getting Started with wolfSSL on Arduino guide.

    When you are ready to move on to the next step, wolfSSL will be there for you! Need to have your project NIST Certified? Recently we announced that wolfSSL is the First in the World to offer FIPS 140–3 Automated Submission with our NIST Certificate #471.

    The What is FIPS (Quick Overview) blog also applies to RISC-V with regards to how your RISC-V Operating Environment (“OE”) can be certified:

    1. You send us your hardware and toolchain.
    2. We run the initial tests which ensure the cryptography module behaves according to specification given your specific hardware and operating system.
    3. The CMVP certified lab runs and verifies the tests and their documentation.
    4. The test results are submitted to CMVP for review.
    5. Your specific operating environment is added to our certificate.
    6. You are FIPS 140 compliant in 60-90 days.
