  2. Certificate signing request - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Certificate_signing_request

    In public key infrastructure (PKI) systems, a certificate signing request (CSR or certification request) is a message sent from an applicant to a certificate authority of the public key infrastructure (PKI) in order to apply for a digital identity certificate. The CSR usually contains the public key for which the certificate should be issued ...

  3. Server Name Indication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Server_Name_Indication

    In more detail, when making a TLS connection, the client requests a digital certificate from the web server. Once the server sends the certificate, the client examines it and compares the name it was trying to connect to with the name(s) included in the certificate. If a match occurs, the connection proceeds as normal.

  4. Message authentication code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Message_authentication_code

    The term message integrity code (MIC) is frequently substituted for the term MAC, especially in communications [1] to distinguish it from the use of the latter as media access control address (MAC address). However, some authors [2] use MIC to refer to a message digest, which aims only to uniquely but opaquely identify a single message.

  5. OpenSSL - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenSSL

    OpenSSL is a software library for applications that provide secure communications over computer networks against eavesdropping, and identify the party at the other end. It is widely used by Internet servers, including the majority of HTTPS websites. OpenSSL contains an open-source implementation of the SSL and TLS protocols.

  6. Cipher suite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cipher_suite

    Next the server sends a digital certificate to verify its identity to the client. The server may also request a client's digital certification if needed. If the client and server are not using pre-shared keys , the client then sends an encrypted message to the server that enables the client and the server to compute which secret key will be ...

  7. Online Certificate Status Protocol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Online_Certificate_Status...

    Internet Explorer is built on the CryptoAPI of Windows and thus starting with version 7 on Windows Vista (not XP [14]) supports OCSP checking. [15] All versions of Mozilla Firefox support OCSP checking. Firefox 3 enables OCSP checking by default. [16] Safari on macOS supports OCSP checking. It is enabled by default as of Mac OS X 10.7 (Lion).

  8. Comparison of TLS implementations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_TLS...

    Several versions of the TLS protocol exist. SSL 2.0 is a deprecated [27] protocol version with significant weaknesses. SSL 3.0 (1996) and TLS 1.0 (1999) are successors with two weaknesses in CBC-padding that were explained in 2001 by Serge Vaudenay. [28]

  9. Comparison of cryptography libraries - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_cryptography...

    Comparison of implementations of message authentication code (MAC) algorithms. A MAC is a short piece of information used to authenticate a message—in other words, to confirm that the message came from the stated sender (its authenticity) and has not been changed in transit (its integrity).
