Abstract Syntax Notation One (ASN.1) Services

GRIFFIN Consulting knows that even senior information security professionals can be confused about Abstract Syntax Notation One (ASN.1). By mistaking abstract notation for data structures, they can fail to interpret completely the meaning of security and communications messages written in ASN.1. By ignoring or misreading the relationships between abstract and concrete syntax, they can miss opportunities to simplify their programs and their handling of encoded values. That's why GRIFFIN Consulting offers expert ASN.1 services to help you avoid the pitfalls that arise in ASN.1-based projects.

GRIFFIN Consulting takes the guess work out of abstract notation, providing you with the seasoned expertise that only comes from correcting and amending the ASN.1 standards, authoring ASN.1 in numerous information security standards, and implementing ASN.1 security tools and products. GRIFFIN Consulting can add depth of expertise to your next ASN.1 project, through on site training, custom software development, or consulting services, such as:.

• Design and write ASN.1 types, classes, objects, and modules;
• Test ASN.1 definitions for semantic and syntactic correctness;
• Document ASN.1 syntax definitions in understandable prose;
• Create ASN.1 types for serialization in multiple pass messaging protocols;
• Convert 1994+ ASN.1 into 1988 ASN.1 (X.208) notation for use with legacy tools;
• Upgrade X.208 ASN.1 types to conform to the latest ASN.1 standards.
• Provide example encoded values of ASN.1 types for developer test vector use;
• Simplify ASN.1 standards with streamlined alternative syntax for implementation efficiency.
