Embedded crypto library

Sep 04, 2008 4 Replies

I'm interested in getting an RSA/x.509v3 crypto library for an embedded ARM system (GCC C++).



I'm after something that's non-GPL, commercial options are being considered (preferably with a one-off fee rather than royalty-based).



I've looked at a few possible libraries like Botan and Crypto++ but both seem to be heavy on dynamic memory and exceptions (our system doesn't use exceptions because once upon a time the extra memory required was more than the system of the time had).



Any thought/suggestions/recommendations?



Cheers

What exactally are you doing? I think you will find almost everything is in the public domain with C implementations. You just need to find the C code files, not whole libraries.

At one time RSA BSAFE was concidered the reference standard for crypto functions.

It's still available. I do not know what the pricing/royality situation is.
