<div><p>SSL concepts includes supplemental information, providing some
basic building blocks for the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocols.</p>
<p>With the SSL protocol, you can establish secure connections between clients
and server applications which provide authentication of one or both endpoints
of the communication session. SSL also provides privacy and integrity of the
data that client and server applications exchange.</p>

<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rzainhistory.htm">History of SSL</a></strong><br />
Netscape developed The Secure Sockets Layer Protocol (SSL) in 1994, as a response to the growing concern over security on the Internet.</li>
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rzainhowssl.htm">How SSL works</a></strong><br />
SSL is actually two protocols. The protocols are the record protocol and the handshake protocol. The record protocol controls the flow of the data between the two endpoints of an SSL session.</li>
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rzainrzaintls.htm">Supported SSL and Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocols</a></strong><br />
This topic describes which versions off the SSL and TLS protocols
the i5/OS™ implementation
supports.</li>
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rzainserverauth.htm">Server authentication</a></strong><br />
With server authentication, the client will ensure that the server certificate is valid and that it is signed by a certificate authority (CA) which the client trusts.</li>
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rzainclientauth.htm">Client authentication</a></strong><br />
Many applications allow the option to enable client authentication. With client authentication, the server will ensure that the client certificate is valid and that it is signed by a Certificate Authority which the server trusts.</li>
