Penetration Testing for TLS Vulnerabilities

Online, Self-Paced

The TLS protocol aims primarily to provide privacy and data integrity between two or more communicating computer applications. However, flaws in TLS protocol include weak cryptographic primitives, or specific implementation errors, cross-protocol vulnerabilities or any combination of each. This course teaches how to identify vulnerabilities, detecting acceptance of unencrypted connections and testing configurations.
