| What is SSL? |
| SSL or Secure Sockets Layer refers to the sockets method of passing data back and forth between a client and a server program in a network or between program layers in the same computer. SSL uses the public- and private-key encryption system, which includes the use of a digital certificate. URL's that use an SSL connection start with "https. SSL provides security for web transactions by handling authentication and data encryption. |

SSL
The SSL handshake is an exchange of information that takes place between the client and the server when a connection is established. It is during the handshake that client and server negotiate the encryption algorithms that they will use, and authenticate one another. The main features of the SSL handshake are:
- The client and server exchange information about the SSL version number and the cipher suites that they both support.
- The server sends its certificate and other information to the client. Some of the information is encrypted with the server's private key. If the client can successfully decrypt the information with the server's public key, it is assured of the server's identity.
- If client authentication is required, the client sends its certificate and other information to the server. Some of the information is encrypted with the client's private key. If the server can successfully decrypt the information with the client's public key, it is assured of the client's identity.
- The client and server exchange random information which each generates and which is used to establish session keys: these are symmetric keys which are used to encrypt and decrypt information during the SSL session. The keys are also used to verify the integrity of the data.
Certificate authorities
In order that one system can be assured that a certificate received from another system is genuine, a trusted third party that can vouch for the certificate is needed.
Certificate authorities are independent bodies who act as the trusted third parties, by issuing certificates for use by others. Before issuing a certificate, a certificate authority will examine the credentials of the person or organization that has requested the certificate. When the certificate has been issued, information about it is held on a publicly accessible repository. Users can consult the repository to check the status and validity of any certificates received.
Certificate authorities issue several levels of security certificates for different purposes. For example:
- Secure e-mail
- Client authentication
- Server authentication
