| Description | Allegro's suite of Embedded Device Security tool kits makes embedding standards-based security protocols into resource sensitive embedded systems and consumer electronics fast, easy and reliable. The Allegro Cryptographic Engine (ACE) is a cryptographic library module specifically engineered for embedded devices. The module provides embedded systems developers with an easily understood software interface to enable bulk encryption and decryption, message digests, digital signature creation and validation and key generation and exchange. For full details see www.allegrosoft.com/ace. |

Automated inference - use with caution
All attributes shown in this section (e.g., links between certificates, products, vendors, and known CVEs) are generated by automated heuristics and have not been reviewed by humans. These methods can produce false positives or false negatives and should not be treated as definitive without independent verification. This applies equally to the Cross-references section below. If you want to know more about how this data is computed and how reliable it is, see our documentation on automated analysis. If you believe any information here is inaccurate or harmful, please submit feedback.No automatically derived data are available in this section.
