[UPDATE!] We’re glad to announce that we’re releasing NetShield on Wednesday the 13th of March for $19.99! The version we’re releasing is a completely reworked version of the original NetShield plugin that features a user-friendly managed networking interface! We’ll be updating the preview images to reflect this shorttly! We’re also hosing a giveaway for a FREE copy, so please read the full post for further details!
NetShield is now available on the Unreal Engine Marketplace! You can find it here: NetShield - SSL/TLS, TCP & More! in Code Plugins - UE Marketplace
NetShield is an easy to use library that let’s you use SSL/TLS, TCP, AES, SHA and BASE64 using blueprints!
SSL/TLS
NetShield allows you to easily connect to a secure SSLv3 or TLS server by using 1 node. Once you’ve established your connection, you can use the send and receive nodes to send data & the close node to close the connection to your server. No more worrying about bytes, malloc and all those things! It’s handled completely transparently.
TCP Sockets
Don’t want secured sockets? NetShield allows you to communicate over TCP using the same method as SSL/TLS uses. Simply uncheck a box and your ready to go!
AES
Want to do some client-side encryption? AES is probably your best bet. Easily transfer your string to bytes, and use AES-128 and AES-256 to encrypt your data.
SHA
Want to hash something like a password client-side? Use the industry standard SHA algorithms. NetShield supports SHA-1, SHA-256 and SHA-512!
BASE64
Got something that you want to represent in base64? NetShield supports base64 encoding and decoding by simply using a single node.
Nodes
- TCP Connect (both SSL/TLS and unencrypted)
- TCP Send (both SSL/TLS and unencrypted)
- TCP Receive (both SSL/TLS and unencrypted)
- TCP Close (both SSL/TLS and unencrypted)
- AES Encrypt
- AES Decrypt
- SHA-1 Hash
- SHA-256 Hash
- SHA-512 Hash
- BASE64 Encode
- BASE64 Decode
- String to Byte Array
- Byte Array to String
Documentation

NetShield will launch at a price of $19.99.
