Hands-on, practical guide to implementing SSL and TLS protocols for
Internet security
If you are a network professional who knows C programming, this
practical book is for you. Focused on how to implement Secure
Socket Layer (SSL) and Transport Layer Security (TLS), this book
guides you through all necessary steps, whether or not you have a
working knowledge of cryptography. The book covers SSLv2, TLS 1.0,
and TLS 1.2, including implementations of the relevant
cryptographic protocols, secure hashing, certificate parsing,
certificate generation, and more.
Coverage includes:
* Understanding Internet Security
* Protecting against Eavesdroppers with Symmetric
Cryptography
* Secure Key Exchange over an Insecure Medium with Public Key
Cryptography
* Authenticating Communications Using Digital Signatures
* Creating a Network of Trust Using X.509 Certificates
* A Usable, Secure Communications Protocol: Client-Side TLS
* Adding Server-Side TLS 1.0 Support
* Advanced SSL Topics
* Adding TLS 1.2 Support to Your TLS Library
* Other Applications of SSL
* A Binary Representation of Integers: A Primer
* Installing TCPDump and Open SSL
* Understanding the Pitfalls of SSLv2
Set up and launch a working implementation of SSL with this
practical guide.
