What is SSL? What are its uses and how does it come in useful in our daily business. As we start out a new year, it is good to check the basics and whether they are secure. When it comes to remote desktops and distant working environments, cybersecurity matters are not going away. Thus, the questions of what SSL is, how we use it and how we make sure it works towards better cybersecurity seem fitting ones to consider. Come along with me to find out more.
SSL, which stands for Secure Sockets Layer, is a protocol used to establish secure and encrypted communication between a user's web browser and a web server. Its successor, Transport Layer Security (TLS), is more commonly used today. The primary purpose of SSL/TLS is to ensure the confidentiality and integrity of data exchanged between a user and a website.
When you visit a website that uses SSL/TLS, your browser and the website's server engage in a process called the SSL/TLS handshake. This involves the exchange of cryptographic keys to establish a secure connection. Once you have established a connection, TSplus software encrypts the data transferred between your browser and the server. Consequently, it is much more difficult for unauthorized parties to intercept or tamper with your information.
SSL/TLS is crucial for securing and preserving sensitive data, such as login credentials, personal information and financial transactions, during online communication. You can identify a secure connection through the "https://" prefix in the website's URL. Also, look out for the padlock symbol in the address bar of your browser.
In the context of TSplus and its services, implementing SSL/TLS is essential. Indeed, this technology secures remote connections, application publishing and other interactions between users and the TSplus platform. It adds an extra layer of protection, ensuring that data remains confidential and secure during your remote sessions and interactions with TSplus software.
Our work towards highly secure remote connections is also visible. Take for instance how, for example, our connection client is HTML5 based. Read any of our security orientated blog posts. Otherwise, check out TSplus Advanced Security and our other product pages to find out more.
