New CICS Support for Secure Sockets Layer
Overview CICS Transaction Server has had support for Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) since Version 1 Release 3, but the support has been considerably enhanced in Version 3 Release 1. Many of the enhancements arise from exploitation of changes in the underlying z/OS support for SSL, in the System SSL component, but others arise from a restructure of the CICS code itself. SSL is a security protocol that is used extensively on the Internet to allow private secure communications over the public network. SSL was defined by the Netscape Corporation and currently exists as Versions 2 and 3.
