Security Upgrade of x86 Router for Certification Compliance

Our team ensured the client's router was secure and compliant with regulatory requirements by thoroughly testing various protocols. In this project, we used OPNsense, a robust firewall and open-source routing platform based on FreeBSD.

We extended the x86 hardware features with OPNsense, providing enhanced security mechanisms:

  • VPN and Tor connectivity
  • Changing IMEI
  • A secure residential and data-server proxy
  • Hardware encryption acceleration

The result was a certified network router that met national security standards.

FAQ

Can you prepare our VPN gateway for FIPS 140-3 and CRA requirements?

 

Yes, on the engineering side. We integrate FIPS 140-3-validated crypto modules into your VPN stack, configure approved mode, define the cryptographic boundary, and prepare the technical groundwork an accredited lab expects.

For the EU market, we add CRA-aligned device security: secure boot, signed updates, SBOM, and vulnerability handling. Testing is performed by NIST-accredited laboratories and validation certificates are issued by the CMVP; we make sure your product arrives ready.

 

How does post-quantum cryptography differ from traditional cryptographic algorithms, and why is it important for VPN security?

 

Post-quantum cryptography differs from traditional methods by utilising mathematical approaches resistant to attacks by quantum computers. It is critical for VPN security as quantum computers have the potential to break current encryption standards. Implementing post-quantum cryptography ensures long-term security and protection of sensitive data transmitted over VPN connections, safeguarding against future advancements in quantum computing technology.

 

What are the main challenges in implementing post-quantum cryptography, and how do you overcome them?

 

The main challenges involve transitioning from traditional cryptographic algorithms, compatibility with existing systems, and performance implications due to the computational complexity of post-quantum algorithms. We overcome these challenges through careful algorithm selection, integration of hybrid encryption schemes, performance optimisation techniques, and ongoing research and collaboration with experts in the field.

 

How do network integration services enable seamless implementation of VPN solutions with diverse network components and protocols?

 

Our network integration services involve analysing the existing network infrastructure, identifying compatibility issues, and implementing DPI network monitoring. To achieve seamless integration, our experts configure routers, firewalls, and other network devices to support VPN protocols, establish secure connections, and enable efficient traffic routing.

Our goal is to ensure that your new product seamlessly interacts with the network, enabling businesses to achieve uninterrupted communication while maintaining compatibility with various operating systems and platforms.

 

How do you handle user authentication and access control?

 

We handle them through robust mechanisms such as username/password authentication, multi-factor authentication, or integration with existing identity providers. Access control policies are enforced based on user roles, permissions, or specific criteria to ensure authorised access to resources.

 

What actions do you take to protect against DNS leaks and ensure the privacy of user data?

We implement DNS leak protection at the VPN client level, use secure DNS resolvers, and perform rigorous testing to identify and mitigate potential vulnerabilities. We also adhere to best practices in encryption and tunnelling protocols to safeguard data transmission.

 

How do you address compatibility issues with different operating systems and platforms in secure software engineering?

 

We employ comprehensive testing and adaptation methods to ensure seamless functionality across various environments. We consider platform-specific requirements, APIs, and networking frameworks to provide consistent performance and user experience across diverse systems.
