Implementing SSL / TLS Using Cryptography and PKI

Hands-on, practical guide to implementing SSL and TLS protocols forInternet security If you are a network professional who knows C programming, thispractical book is for you. Focused on how to implement SecureSocket Layer (SSL) and Transport Layer Security (TLS), this bookguides you through all necessary steps, whether or not you have aworking knowledge of cryptography. The book covers SSLv2, TLS 1.0,and TLS 1.2, including implementations of the relevantcryptographic protocols, secure hashing, certificate parsing,certificate generation, and more. Coverage includes: * Understanding Internet Security * Protecting against Eavesdroppers with SymmetricCryptography * Secure Key Exchange over an Insecure Medium with Public KeyCryptography * Authenticating Communications Using Digital Signatures * Creating a Network of Trust Using X.509 Certificates * A Usable, Secure Communications Protocol: Client-Side TLS * Adding Server-Side TLS 1.0 Support * Advanced SSL Topics * Adding TLS 1.2 Support to Your TLS Library * Other Applications of SSL * A Binary Representation of Integers: A Primer * Installing TCPDump and OpenSSL * Understanding the Pitfalls of SSLv2 Set up and launch a working implementation of SSL with thispractical guide.
