  • Understanding SSL/TLS Spoofing: Creating Fake SSL Certificates and Intercepting Encrypted Communications

    Introduction to SSL/TLS Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) and Transport Layer Security (TLS) are cryptographic protocols designed to provide secure communication over a computer network. SSL, the predecessor of TLS, was initially developed by Netscape in the mid-1990s. TLS, which emerged as an upgraded version of SSL, is now the dominant protocol used to secure web…

    Cryptography: Techniques for Secure Communication

    Introduction to Cryptography Cryptography, the art and science of securing information, has a rich historical context that dates back to ancient civilizations. From the use of simple ciphers in ancient Egypt to the sophisticated encryption algorithms of today, cryptography has continually evolved to meet the demands of secure communication. In its earliest forms, cryptography involved…
