Description
TLS Mastery by Michael W Lucas provides a comprehensive understanding of Transport Layer Security (TLS), a crucial protocol for ecommerce and online banking. This book takes you through the inner workings of TLS, covering topics such as how it protects your passwords and privacy, wrapping unencrypted connections in TLS, and assessing configurations. You'll learn about the Automated Certificate Management Environment (ACME) protocol, using Let's Encrypt to automatically maintain TLS certificates, and understand the Online Certificate Status Protocol, Certificate Revocation, CAA, HSTS, and Certificate Transparency. The book also explores why you shouldn't run your own CA and how to do it anyway. With TLS Mastery, you'll gain a solid grasp of this essential sysadmin skill, enabling you to master the protocol and make informed decisions about your online security.
