The adoption of devices for the internet of things will depend very much on their communication to the Internet being secure. There are many aspects to being able to secure connections between client ...

SSL and TLS are similar technologies because they share a codebase, though one is better than the other. In fact, one is dead and the other still reigns supreme to the time this day. By end of this ...

Thanks to Google and Facebook, awareness of Transport Layer Security (TLS), formerly known a Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption technology, is now fairly high. In fact, adoption of TLS/SSL is so ...

A project that aims to increase the use of encryption by giving away free SSL/TLS certificates has issued its first one, marking the start of its beta program. The project, called Let’s Encrypt, is ...

Just how broken are fundamental Internet security technologies such as Secure-Socket Layer (SSL), Advanced Encryption Standard (AES), and Transport Layer Security (TLS)? We still don't know for ...

SSL/TLS encryption once again is being haunted by an outdated and weak feature long past its prime: a newly discovered attack exploits a weakness in the older, less secure RC4 encryption algorithm ...

As enterprises get better about encrypting network traffic to protect data from potential attacks or exposure, online attackers are also stepping up their Secure Sockets Layer/Transport Layer Security ...

Anyone operating a server on any scale should want a digital certificate to encrypt data between clients and services, whether for personal, office, or public use. That’s a broad statement, but it ...

Secure sockets layer (SSL) is an industry-standard method for secure communications on the internet. SSL -- along with its successor, transport layer security (TLS) -- is the commonly accepted ...
