Book Description
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. Traditionally, getting something simple done in OpenSSL could take weeks. Network Security with OpenSSL gives you guidance to avoid pitfalls, and allows 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. The book details the challenges in securing network communications, and shows you how to use OpenSSL tools to best meet those challenges.
