Description

SSL Intro The course starts with a discussion of how an SSL connection is established. Attention is paid to how the SSL connection starts with a handshake between client and server. In the first step in the connection, the client uses the server's public key to encrypt a message. The server has the corresponding private key and can read the message with it. Then a secret key is generated. That key is only known to both the client and the server and is used in the mutual message traffic. Encryption Algorithms Next attention is paid to the various forms of encryption that play a role in SSL. With asymmetric encryption, both sides of the connection have different keys that fit together and that can decipher each other's messages. With symmetric encryption, both sides have the same key, which must then be hidden from the outside world. And with hash encryption there is one-way encryption. A message cannot be deciphered then, but it is possible to check whether the message has been changed. SSL Certificates The course also covers what SSL certificates are and how they are used to identify a server or a client. It is explained which types of certificates there are.
