Download or read book SSL and TLS Theory and Practice Third Edition written by Rolf Oppliger and published by Artech House. This book was released on 2023-06-30 with total page 383 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now in its Third Edition, this completely revised and updated reference provides a thorough and comprehensive introduction into the SSL, TLS, and DTLS protocols, explaining all the details and technical subtleties and showing how the current design helps mitigate the attacks that have made press headlines in the past. The book tells the complete story of TLS, from its earliest incarnation (SSL 1.0 in 1994), all the way up to and including TLS 1.3. Detailed descriptions of each protocol version give you a full understanding of why the protocol looked like it did, and why it now looks like it does. You will get a clear, detailed introduction to TLS 1.3 and understand the broader context of how TLS works with firewall and network middleboxes, as well the key topic of public infrastructures and their role in securing TLS. You will also find similar details on DTLS, a close sibling of TLS that is designed to operate over UDP instead of TCP. The book helps you fully understand the rationale behind the design of the SSL, TLS, and DTLS protocols and all of its extensions. It also gives you an in-depth and accessible breakdown of the many vulnerabilities in earlier versions of TLS, thereby more fully equipping you to properly configure and use the protocols in the field and protect against specific (network-based) attacks. With its thorough discussion of widely deployed network security technology, coupled with its practical applications you can utilize today, this is a must-have book for network security practitioners and software/web application developers at all levels.

Download or read book Network Security with OpenSSL written by John Viega and published by "O'Reilly Media, Inc.". This book was released on 2002-06-17 with total page 387 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most applications these days are at least somewhat network aware, but how do you protect those applications against common network security threats? Many developers are turning to OpenSSL, an open source version of SSL/TLS, which is the most widely used protocol for secure network communications.The OpenSSL library is seeing widespread adoption for web sites that require cryptographic functions to protect a broad range of sensitive information, such as credit card numbers and other financial transactions. The library is the only free, full-featured SSL implementation for C and C++, and it can be used programmatically or from the command line to secure most TCP-based network protocols.Network Security with OpenSSL enables developers to use this protocol much more effectively. Traditionally, getting something simple done in OpenSSL could easily take weeks. This concise book gives you the guidance you need to avoid pitfalls, while allowing you to take advantage of the library?s advanced features. And, instead of bogging you down in the technical details of how SSL works under the hood, this book provides only the information that is necessary to use OpenSSL safely and effectively. In step-by-step fashion, the book details the challenges in securing network communications, and shows you how to use OpenSSL tools to best meet those challenges.As a system or network administrator, you will benefit from the thorough treatment of the OpenSSL command-line interface, as well as from step-by-step directions for obtaining certificates and setting up your own certification authority. As a developer, you will further benefit from the in-depth discussions and examples of how to use OpenSSL in your own programs. Although OpenSSL is written in C, information on how to use OpenSSL with Perl, Python and PHP is also included.OpenSSL may well answer your need to protect sensitive data. If that?s the case, Network Security with OpenSSL is the only guide available on the subject.
