Embedded Computing Design's Best in Show Awards recognize innovative solutions for embedded, IoT, and machine learning engineers that will be showcased at the Embedded World 2019 Exhibition & Conference. Here, we outline nominees for the 2019 Best in Show Award in the category of Security.

• Inside Secure Flexible Secure Provisioning
• wolfSSL Embedded SSL/TLS Library

Inside Secure Flexible Secure Provisioning

Many of the world's connected consumer electronics products are manufactured offshore and out of the control of those who usually demand it most. Inside Secure flexible provisioning platform revolutionizes secure provisioning by offering the simplest secure provisioning solution that eliminates the need to secure the manufacturing line. The solution does not rely on the security of the manufacturing site or its employees. It provides a secure provisioning and control from the device maker operation to the device manufactured in the remote site. Our solution is adaptable to a variety of hardware and software architectures and requires no hardware-based secure storage.

Inside Secure flexible provisioning platform is the world's first independent provisioning service. Our provisioning solution is cost effective, but also powerfully secure and enabling. With over 425 million devices provisioned successfully, we offer the know-how and technology to bring our customers the security and privacy they need under intense budget and schedule constraints.

wolfSSL Embedded SSL/TLS Library

The wolfSSL library is a lightweight SSL/TLS library written in ANSI C and targeted for embedded, RTOS, and resource-constrained environments – primarily because of its small size, speed, and feature set. It is commonly used in standard operating environments as well because of its royalty-free pricing and excellent cross-platform support. wolfSSL supports industry standards up to the current TLS 1.3 and DTLS 1.2 levels, is up to 20 times smaller than OpenSSL, and offers progressive ciphers such as ChaCha20, Curve25519, NTRU, Blake2b, and SHA-3 (Keccak). User benchmarking and feedback reports dramatically better performance when using wolfSSL over OpenSSL.

wolfSSL provides the most secure embedded SSL/TLS libraries, a high-powered and lightweight encryption engine, and is backed by 24x7 support. wolfSSL is an engineering-focused company whose sole mission is security. Conducting regular, diligent, and well-planned testing helps maintain wolfSSL's robustness and security. We know it is impossible to test every single possible path through the software, but we practice an approach that is focused on lowering risk of failure. In addition to extensive automated testing, we make sure that we specifically test well-known use cases. wolfSSL prides itself on being the best-tested crypto.
