MIDP Application Security 2: Understanding SSL and TLS
Overview Transport Layer Security (TLS) is a protocol that enables authentication and data encryption over insecure networks. It is implemented as a layer between TCP/IP and higher-level network protocols like HTTP, SMTP, and NNTP. The implementation of SSL in web browsers is nearly seamless for users, providing cryptographic authentication and session-based encryption at a minimal cost in ease of use. This paper describes TLS and its close cousin, Secure Sockets Layer (SSL).
