JDSU has selected Mocana to provide embedded security and device integrity for the JDSU TestPoint family of broadband test solutions.
After analyzing several security partners, JDSU selected Mocana and its NanoSSH Advanced solution because of Mocana's extremely small footprint, very high performance and ease-of-implementation. Because NanoSSH is designed for portability (it's already available for more than 30 operating systems and 70 CPU platforms), JDSU has ultimate flexibility when expanding the TestPoint product line to new hardware platforms.
NanoSSH is client/server solution with support for X509.v3 Certificate based authentication and comes with RADIUS client, specifically designed to speed product development while providing best-in-class device security services for resource-constrained environments, according to the company. NanoSSH provides a holistic approach for securing networked devices and services, and is ideally suited for resource-constrained devices as well as high-traffic enterprise and federal environments where performance is critical. NanoSSH is open-standards-based, extensible, extremely small footprint, platform-agnostic and features an optional government-certified FIPS 140-2 level-1-validated crypto core and NSA Suite B cryptography.
"Mocana's NanoSSH software helped accelerate our development cycle for secure connectivity to the TestPoint product," said Guylain Barlow, Sr. Product Line Manager in JDSU's Communications Test and Measurement business segment. "Mocana's technology is the fastest, smallest SSH implementation we've seen, and the quality of their code can't be beat. They really understand device integrity, and the special challenges of securing embedded platforms."
