Featured VPNC Member White Papers

One of the more popular features on VPNC's web site is our extensive list of white papers from our members. These cover a range of topics from VPN basics to cryptography. As interesting new white papers appear, we will list them in the VPNC Update.

Wind River has created a very interesting white paper called An Introduction to Network Security in Embedded Devices. It describes where IPsec fits into the embedded devices market and gives a good overview of how applications that are typically housed in embedded devices can use IPsec for end-to-end security.
