Interview: Louis Parks on “Securing Our Future” with Peggy Smedley
Louis Parks (CEO, SecureRF) recently appeared on The Peggy Smedley Show podcast (Episode 545). In a segment titled “Securing Our Future,” Parks covered the history of public-key security, the importance of securing low-resource processors, and SecureRF’s future-proof authentication and data protection solutions for 8-, 16-, and 32-bit processors. Parks also explained the threat quantum computers pose…

Customer concerns related to IoT security are becoming more prevalent as IoT moves into the mainstream. However, many companies involved in the production of low-resource IoT devices driven by 32-, 16- and even 8-bit processors are not able to implement contemporary security solutions with acceptable runtime and resource allocation. This on-demand webinar is a special opportunity…

The purpose of cryptography is to assure data protection, authentication, and non-repudiation (so no one can deny they took part in a communication). While codes and encryption have existed in one form or another since ancient times, it’s thanks to advances in electronic cryptographic systems since the 1970s that today we enjoy things like secure…
Read MoreHow Big is Your Key?
In providing cryptography solutions for wireless sensors and other devices in the Internet of Things we are often asked, Can the encryption be cracked? We think this is the wrong question to ask when evaluating a cipher. Rather, we feel the question a user should ask is How long will it take to crack this…
Read MoreAn Introduction to Cryptographic Security Methods and Their Role in Securing Low Resource Computing Devices
Contributed by Joanne C. Kelleher What is the difference between private key and public key cryptography? What is the difference between symmetric and asymmetric cryptography? What is the difference between Diffie-Hellman (Elliptic Curve) and RSA asymmetric cryptography methods? Since SecureRF’s Algebraic Eraser technology offers a combination of symmetric (i.e. private key or secret key) and…
