# Understanding SSL: Secure Sockets Layer Internet
security protocol created by Netscape in 1995. It
provides encryption, authentication, and data integrity.
SSL is the predecessor to modern Transport Layer
Security (TLS).
• The following lie on the transport
layer:

- TCP
- UDP
- SSL
- TLS
- SPX

When you access the website using


your explorer, HTTP is at work on
application layer. SSL is being used
to encapsulate the HTTP traffic, at
the transport layer. SSL at the
transport layer encrypts the HTTP
traffic coming from the application
layer.
OSI Model Position
SSL enhances security by encrypting data. Operates at
layer 6, the presentation layer.
1. The client sends a request to the server for a secure session. The server
responds by sending its X.509 digital certificate to the client.
2. The client receives the server's X.509 digital certificate.
(An X.509 digital certificate is a widely used standard for encoding and exchanging
public key certificates, used to verify the identity of entities (users, devices, or services) in digital
communications and transactions)
3. The client authenticates the server, using a list of known certificate authorities.
4. The client generates a random symmetric key and encrypts it using server's
public key.
5. The client and server now both know the symmetric key and can use the SSL
encryption process to encrypt and decrypt the information contained in the
client request and the server response.
# SSL Handshake Mechanism The client initiates a secure
connection request and the server presents a digital
certificate. A mutual authentication process establishes
an encrypted communication tunnel.

1. Securing Web Communication (HTTPS):
• Encryption:
• SSL/TLS encrypts data transmitted between a web browser and a website server,
making it unreadable to eavesdroppers.
• Authentication:
• It authenticates the server to the client, ensuring the user is communicating with
the legitimate website and not a fake one.
• HTTPS:
• SSL/TLS is the foundation of HTTPS, the secure version of HTTP, which is indicated
by the "https://" prefix in a web address.
• Examples:
• Online banking, e-commerce transactions, and any website handling sensitive data
relies on SSL/TLS to protect user information.
Advancements in
Security
TLS is now the standard protocol for
securing websites and online
communications, with older versions of
SSL no longer recommended
TLS has evolved through versions 1.0, 1.1,
1.2, and 1.3, with each version offering
improvements in security and performance
TLS offers stronger encryption algorithms
and enhanced security features compared
to SSL
TLS is the successor to SSL, addressing the
security weaknesses of its predecessor.
# Conclusion: The Future of Secure Communications
Ongoing development of encryption technologies.
Increasing importance of data privacy as well as
challenges in maintaining robust security protocols.
Securing our digital world for the future.
