Questions tagged [ssl]
Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) is a cryptographic protocol, now superseded by Transport Layer Security (TLS) that provides secure communications over the Internet. Often, SSL is used as a blanket term and refers to both the SSL protocol and the Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocol. The most recent version of the protocol is TLS version 1.3, specified by the IETF in RFC 8446.
