As seen on the OpenBSD -announce list. OpenBSD now has hardware cryptographic support to boost IPSEC performance. “Currently. only cards using the HiFn 7751 chip can be used. This Hifn chip is an IPSEC-oriented DES/3DES and SHA1/MD5 hmac engine; ie. only symmetric cryptography. .  . we are getting 63. 12Mb/s 3des/sha1 ESP IPSEC.
What. the world of people with names who know what they’re talking about? Zurk: OpenBSD had a root exploit Smart person: no it didn’t Zurk: OpenSSH had a root exploit Smart person: no it didn’t Zurk: RSAREF had a root exploit I will use short words to get this through to you: RSAREF is not part of. . .
