Course SSL Certificates

The course SSL Certificates covers the theory and practice of SSL certificates that are essential in setting up secure and encrypted Internet connections. The original SSL 2 and SSL 3 protocols have since been replaced by the TLS protocol, but the name SSL is still used. With SSL, one side of the connection has a private key, while a public key is made available to others who want to connect.

    SSL Intro

    The course starts with a discussion of how an SSL connection is established. Attention is paid to how the SSL connection starts with a handshake between client and server. In the first step in the connection, the client uses the server's public key to encrypt a message. The server has the corresponding private key and can read the message with it. Then a secret key is generated. That key is only known to both the client and the server and is used in the mutual message traffic.

    Encryption Algorithms

    Next attention is paid to the various forms of encryption that play a role in SSL. With asymmetric encryption, both sides of the connection have different keys that fit together and that can decipher each other's messages. With symmetric encryption, both sides have the same key, which must then be hidden from the outside world. And with hash encryption there is one-way encryption. A message cannot be deciphered then, but it is possible to check whether the message has been changed.

    SSL Certificates

    The course also covers what SSL certificates are and how they are used to identify a server or a client. It is explained which types of certificates there are. Client, server and self-signed certificates are discussed and root certificates and wild card certificates are also treated. Attention is also paid to how certificates can be created or requested and how to install them in known servers.

    Public Key Infrastructure

    Recognized certificates are issued by certificate authorities such as Thawte, Verisign, Let's Encrypt and other organizations. They check whether the applicant for a certificate is really who he claims to be and use various verification methods for this. The certificate authorities are part of the Public Key Infrastructure. Protocols such as DANE and DNSSEC are also discussed.
