About:
wolfSSL is a lightweight, portable SSL/TLS library written in C, optimized for embedded systems and constrained environments. It provides robust security for applications requiring high performance and minimal footprint. The library supports the latest standards including TLS 1.3 and DTLS 1.3.
Key Features:
  • Small footprint and low memory usage
  • Support for TLS 1.3 and DTLS 1.3
  • FIPS 140-2/140-3 and DO-178C certified
  • Portability across RTOS, Linux, and bare-metal environments
Use Cases:
  • Securing IoT devices and embedded systems
  • Implementing TLS in resource-constrained applications
  • Developing secure networking for automotive and aerospace
Alternatives:
  • openssl – OpenSSL is a full-featured, general-purpose TLS library with a larger footprint, while wolfSSL is optimized for embedded use.
  • mbedtls – mbedtls is another embedded-focused TLS library; wolfSSL often provides better performance and broader protocol support.
