Inside Secure has released what it says is the world’s smallest Transport Layer Security (TLS) software implementation, the MatrixSSL (Secure Sockets Layer) Tiny. The new open source embedded SSL is designed for small footprint applications and devices, this allows companies to reduce costs when securing IoT devices with stringent memory requirements – such as those with less than 10KB flash and 600 bytes of RAM, providing less than 50KB of code means less places for bugs to hide. MatrixSSL was developed in 2004 by PeerSec Networks, which was then acquired by Inside Secure. Its implementation is written in portable C source code and is designed for custom applications in embedded hardware environments. PeerSec Networks stated that before it developed its…
