Certificate Management Protocols (EST, SCEP)

We are pleased to announce the release of two new implementations designed to streamline certificate management on embedded devices:

• CycloneEST is an EST (Enrollment over Secure Transport) client implementation. EST is a certificate management protocol that provides a secure method for IoT devices to enroll for X.509 certificates over HTTPS. EST automates certificate provisioning and renewal, ensuring secure device identities without requiring manual intervention.
• CycloneSCEP is an SCEP (Simple Certificate Enrolment Protocol) client implementation. Originally developed by Cisco and later standardized in RFC 8894, SCEP offers an easy way to request and renew X.509 certificates. SCEP automates certificate enrollment, reducing manual effort and effectively supporting large-scale deployments.

These new EST & SCEP implementations complement our existing ACME implementation (CycloneACME) as well as our full-featured SSL/TLS library (CycloneSSL), offering a a comprehensive set of options to our customers. All these libraries are distributed as a full ANSI C and highly maintainable source code, and are available either as open source (GPLv2, Evaluation) or under a royalty-free commercial license.

Ethernet Packet Capture Tool

Our new product NetSHARK is a Wireshark-compatible Ethernet packet capture tool that simplifies debugging of TCP/IP connectivity.

Benchmarks & Hardware Crypto Acceleration

To help our users in qualifying performance of CycloneCRYPTO (cryptographic library), CycloneSSL (TLS/DTLS library) and CycloneSSH (SSH library), we now provide benchmarks for our crypto algorithms running on various hardware devices (ST STM32 series, Microchip SAM series & PIC32MX / PIC32MZ, NXP i.MX RT & K6x series, Silabs EFM32, Renesas RA & Synergy series, TI Tiva TM4C129 & MSP432). In the comparison charts, both hardware (using MCU built-in crypto engine) and software performance are presented.

Focus on TLS 1.3

This webinar, organized with LIVE EMBEDDED, will focus on TLS 1.3 updates. TLS 1.3 is the most important security protocol on the Internet, delivering superior privacy, security, and performance. TLS 1.3 is an improvement over TLS 1.2 and TLS 1.1. It was defined in RFC 8446 in August 2018.

• TLS Protocol Status & History
• Version Intolerance & TLS Version Fallback
• TLS 1.3 Motivations
• TLS 1.3 Handshake
• TLS Version & Cipher Suite Negotiation
• TLS 1.3 Deployment (See also www.ssllabs.com/ssl-pulse/)
