Karit Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 I enjoyed watching the hak5 youtube video segment with Mike Kershaw. Its now been close to two years sinse that security talk about how insecure ZigBee is, has there been any security updates for the ZigBee? I would say just as insecure. Security isn't seen as a feature to most people, so they focus on features that people will pay for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dottedquad Posted August 3, 2014 Author Share Posted August 3, 2014 I thought as much. I will stick with using 802.11. The issue I am running into is, I'm sending unencrypted data such as login credentials from my microcontroller to my TCP server. I can't seem to find a WiFi module that supports encryption. The connection to my router is encrypted using WAP, but out to my server isn't. Do you or anyone else know of an embedded WiFi module that supports extra encryption such as AES 128 or AES 256? The microcontroller i am using is the Espruino. I tested a javascript encryption library, but the Espruino ran out of memory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
no42 Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 (edited) The Electric Imp (http://electricimp.com), for embedded projects: https://www.sparkfun.com/products/11395 its cheaper than Arduino WiFi Shield(https://www.sparkfun.com/products/11287 ) Edited August 3, 2014 by midnitesnake Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dottedquad Posted August 3, 2014 Author Share Posted August 3, 2014 Both the sparkfun URLs gave a 404. I visited the electricimp webpage. The WiFi module seems interesting. I searched the electric imp Dev Center for "encryption" and the results came back with WiFi association encryption. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cooper Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 He included spaces in the URL. The first is this and the second is this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
