|
||
|
|
<p>The objective of TLS protocol and its predecessor SSL is to provide privacy
|
||
|
|
over the Internet. TCP/IP client and server applications that are SSL-enabled
|
||
|
|
can communicate in a way designed to prevent eavesdropping, tampering, or
|
||
|
|
message forgery. These protocols provide encryption, integrity, and authentication.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>TLS is an evolutionary upgrade of the SSL Version 3.0 protocol. TLS provides
|
||
|
|
the same function as SSL with additional new features and clarifications of
|
||
|
|
protocol flows for areas that are ill-defined by the SSL protocol definition.
|
||
|
|
The major goal of TLS is to standardize the SSL definition and implementations
|
||
|
|
to make the SSL protocol more secure, and to make the specification of the
|
||
|
|
protocol more concise and complete.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>The SSL/TSL protocol consists of two separate protocols: the
|
||
|
|
record protocol and the handshake protocol. The handshake protocol is encapsulated
|
||
|
|
within the record protocol. The SSL handshake establishes a secure connection
|
||
|
|
between the client and the server.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>Universal Connection creates a Certificate Store for use by SSL and you do not
|
||
|
|
need to change this item. In addition, some Universal Connection applications
|
||
|
|
and flows are protected using SSL or TLS.</p>
