European embedded systems tools and software distributor, SDC Systems, has announced that it has added the family of products that make up Mocana’s Device Security Framework™ to its range of software and development tools for embedded developers. Mocana’s NanoSSL™, NanoSSH™ and NanoSec™ IPSec/IKE solutions are among the fastest and smallest security protocol implementations on the market, offering performance multiples of up to 3x and memory footprints only 1/10th the size of comparable open source or commercial pc-based security implementation.
"This is another exciting addition to the SDC portfolio," stated Stuart Parker, Managing Director of SDC Systems. "Our objective is always to provide technologies that both accelerate development and aid the development of truly innovative products. Mocana provides an impressive list of proven device security solutions that will help our customers implement robust, high-performance security within their new embedded system designs."
Mocana's industry-leading infrastructure software solutions ensure that wired and wireless devices, networks and services perform and scale with the utmost security. Mocana’s device security offerings offer compelling advantages for developers that work in constrained device environments. Mocana was recently named one of Red Herring's "Top 100 Privately-Held Companies in North America" for 2008 and also won Frost & Sullivan’s “Technology Innovation of the Year” award for its work in device security.
The Mocana Device Security Framework provides a holistic approach for securing networked devices and services and is ideally suited to the Networking market. The Framework is open standards-based, extensible, OS and CPU independent and contains FIPS-validated crypto algorithms. It includes modular software that gets embedded into devices at the time of manufacture as well as (optionally) capabilities delivered across the network. The Framework features an asynchronous architecture that leverages a common abstraction layer, and includes the Mocana Acceleration Harness™, a unique software layer that manages crypto offload to hardware to extract maximum performance and scaling benefits from emerging hardware acceleration technologies.
Mocana’s embedded device security solutions offer embedded developers best-in-class implementations of dozens of popular security protocols, including SSL, SSH, IPSec, IKE, MOBIKE, DTLS, RADIUS, WPA2, EAP, certificate management, secure device boots and updates, and even a sophisticated intrusion detection system for embedded devices called NanoDefender™. Developers can download free trial versions of any of these packages at http://www.mocana.com/evaluate.
"We are very pleased to have SDC Systems promoting and supporting our products in the UK," said Adrian Turner, CEO, Mocana. "Their deep understanding of embedded technology, the UK technology sector and their high standards of customer care and technical support are sure to help us grow our business in the UK. We are looking forward to working with them, bringing the many benefits of our technology to network equipment developers in this region."
SDC Systems will be exhibiting the Mocana family of products at the Embedded Masterclass, to be held in Cambridge and Bristol, May 7th and 12th. www.embedded-masterclass.com. An engineer from SDC will be available at the event to discuss the range of Mocana products and their application within realtime and embedded system development.
