Allegro Software Announces TLS API Compatibility Layers to Speed IoT Development with TLS v1.3 and FIPS 140-2


Allegro ACE FIPS 140-2 Validation

Allegro Logo

Improving IoT device security with the latest technology is important for reducing related risks and building trust around projected business outcomes derived from IoT ecosystem data

At the RSA® Conference 2020 in San Francisco, California, Allegro Software, a leading supplier of security and connectivity software for the Internet of Things (IoT), today announced additions to the Allegro EdgeSecure Suite™ that provide Transport Layer Security (TLS) API compatibility for ARM’s Mbed™ TLS and Open Source Software OpenSSL. A member of the larger Allego EdgeAgent Suite™ of embedded software toolkits, the Allegro EdgeSecure Suite of products enable IoT edge device developers with advanced security technology specifically engineered for resource constrained execution environments. The Allegro EdgeSecure Suite now includes an API compatibility layer for ARM developers looking for TLS v1.3 and FIPS validated cryptography while protecting their existing investment in application software. The Allegro EdgeSecure Suite also includes an API compatibility layer for device developers using Open Source Software OpenSSL with requirements for TLS v1.3 and FIPS 140-2 validated cryptography. The Allegro EdgeSecure Suite and larger Allegro EdgeAgent Suite are delivered as ANSI-C source and are available to quickly implement TLS v1.3 and FIPS validated cryptography with IoT edge devices.

API COMPATIBILIY WITH ARM’S MBED TLS

ARM® technology is used by billions of people, across billions of devices, every single day. To help achieve this milestone, ARM recognized the need to remove the complexities of creating IoT edge devices. Their answer, a collection of pre-integrated software components starting with the Mbed OS surrounded with supporting technology stacks including Mbed TLS v1.2. Providing an API compatibility layer for Mbed TLS, the Allegro EdgeSecure Suite further removes the complexity of migrating to the latest TLS v1.3 while also adding FIPS validated cryptography. Together these two technologies enable developers to improve IoT edge device security and reduce related risks while preserving any potential source code investment made integrating to the Mbed TLS API.

API COMPATIBILITY WITH OPEN SOURCE SOFTWARE OPENSSL

If you have a requirement for TLS v1.3 and FIPS 140-2 validated cryptography and also have a significant internal investment in source code integrated to the OpenSSL API, Allegro Software can help. With the addition of an OpenSSL API compatibility layer to the Allegro EdgeSecure Suite, device developers can rapidly deploy TLS v1.3 and FIPS validated cryptography in their IoT edge devices with little to no change to their source code. Unlike OpenSSL, the Allegro EdgeSecure Suite and the Allegro Cryptography Engine (ACE™) provide a stable API and long-term solution for FIPS 140-2 (and soon to be 140-3) validation. Originally engineered for resource constrained IoT environments, ACE can be used stand-alone or pre-integrated with the entire Allegro EdgeSecure Suite of IoT edge device security components.

“Improving IoT device security with the latest technology is important for reducing related risks and building trust around projected business outcomes derived from IoT ecosystem data,” says

Bob Van Andel, President of Allegro. “Using the Allegro EdgeSecure Suite with the supplied compatibility layers enables developers to retain their investment in IoT ecosystem source code while moving forward with the latest TLS v1.3 and FIPS validated cryptography.”

The full Allegro EdgeAgent Suite is provided as ANSI-C source code and is available today. For more information, stop by the Allegro Software Booth #4610 or visit the Allegro Software website: https://www.allegrosoft.com

Fastec Imaging Releases the HS7 Full HD High-Speed Camera System


Fastec HS7 High Speed Camera

Fastec HS7 High Speed camera

The HS Series system architecture uses a fiber optic link to provide the fastest possible image transfers… to avoid having to wait on the camera to download images before starting analysis…

Designed primarily for laboratory and industrial use, the HS7 system combines a high-speed camera with a dedicated controller, thus simplifying setup, streamlining integration, and optimizing workflow. Capable of recording FHD (1080p) at 2500 frames per second, the HS7 is the first of Fastec Imaging’s new HS Series cameras to be released. The HS Series includes cameras with resolutions ranging from HD (720p) to UHD (2160p) and imaging rates exceeding 5 gigapixels/second.

High-speed cameras such as the HS7 are capable of producing stunning slow-motion video often associated with entertainment or marketing but are more often used for technical applications such as machine design and troubleshooting, analysis of droplets in microfluidic devices, the study of animal motion for neurological or robotics research, and Digital Image Correlation (DIC) for materials research and component testing.

For technical applications, efficient workflow is critical. The HS7 allows engineers and researchers to capture, display, analyze, transport, and store massive amounts of image data in ways that would be difficult using conventional cameras. According to Charles Mrdjenovich, President of Fastec, “The HS Series system architecture supports hosted applications that allow the user to do more work on camera and uses a fiber optic link to provide the fastest possible image transfers from camera to controller. The idea is to avoid having to wait on the camera to download images before starting analysis or beginning the next test.”

Ease of integration into diverse working environments is key to usability and the HS Series is compatible with a wide range of lenses and optical systems as well as industry standard displays, storage devices and other peripherals. Configurable I/O ports provide connectivity with other cameras, lights, triggers, and laboratory instruments for synchronization and data acquisition. The HS7’s support of unique user logins and configurations combined with lighting fast image archival to portable storage make it an ideal shared resource in academic/research settings where multiple high-speed camera applications are supported.

The HS7 may be operated directly via the dedicated controller or from any network-connected computer running Windows, macOS, or Linux. Smartphone or tablet control is provided via a web browser and an integrated TeamViewer client is available to provide remote support and control.

Fastec Imaging is a global supplier of digital high-speed imaging systems, based in San Diego, CA. The company specializes in uniquely portable and affordable high-speed camera systems, including handheld, point-and-shoot systems, compact PC-controlled cameras, and long duration record systems. Fastec cameras are used in many applications including engineering, industrial manufacturing, packaging, medical, and academic research.

A+ Technology & Security Solutions Connects the West Islip School District to the Suffolk County S.H.A.R.E Program to Enhance Emergency Response


News Image

A+ is committed to our mission of Making a Smarter & Safer World and this collaboration with West Islip and the Suffolk County S.H.A.R.E program is a great step.

A+ Technology & Security Solutions, Inc. a pioneer in school security technology has successfully connected West Islip Public Schools to the Suffolk County Police Department’s Real Time Crime Center. This collaboration, established under the Suffolk County S.H.A.R.E School Safety initiative allows for the SCPD to access the security systems of the district in the event of an emergency.

“Every second matters when it comes to school safety and the Suffolk County Police Department is dedicated to mitigating any potentially dangerous situation in West Islip Public Schools as quickly and effectively as possible,” Suffolk County Police Commissioner Geraldine Hart said. “S.H.A.R.E is another opportunity to work collaboratively with our school districts such as West Islip, to ensure the safety of our youngest residents.”

The team at A+ connected state of the art Axis Communications IP Cameras along with Milestone Systems video management software at West Islip, to the Milestone system A+ previously installed at the Suffolk County Real Time Crime Center. This connection was accomplished with no additional costs for the school district and allows for SCPD officers to have access to the system only in the event of an emergency, both on the scene and back at the crime center.

”We are proud to be a district in Suffolk County successfully up and running on the S.H.A.R.E program,” stated Reanna Fulton, Director of Technology for West Islip Pubic Schools. ”A+ had us connected to the SCPD real time crime center prior to the winter school break and there is low risk to our network and a very high return for school safety in the event of an emergency.”

The initiative will enhance the efficiency of a an SCPD response to an active shooter scenario by fostering more collaboration and information sharing. Police officers will be directed towards specific entry points and locations in a school building, to neutralize or prevent an incident from occurring in a much more rapid manner. For school districts like West Islip that have video management systems, the S.H.A.R.E initiative enables the police department to access these features and the associated cameras for emergency responders as needed during an emergency situation.

“We will do whatever it takes to protect our schools by utilizing every available tool and partnership at our disposal,” said Suffolk County Executive Steve Bellone. “The S.H.A.R.E. initiative gives our police department the ability to have eyes inside the West Islip School Buildings should an emergency ever occur so they can determine exactly where to go, saving precious time.”

“A+ is committed to our mission of Making a Smarter & Safer World and this collaboration with West Islip and the Suffolk County S.H.A.R.E program is a great step,” states David Antar President of A+ Technology and Security Solutions Inc. “As a Suffolk County based company these students are our children, grandchildren and neighbors and we are committed to their safety. West Islip is among the first districts to join the program and we hope many others will soon follow.”
