SSL/TLS Seminar: Unprotected Communications. Is Your Company Losing Opportunities?

With the frequent occurrence of cybercrimes, such as Internet eavesdropping, tampering, and spoofing, individuals and corporations lose important private information that gets transmitted through the Internet. The need for a safe and secure Internet has prompted the adoption of SSL/TLS (Secure Sockets Layer/Transport Layer Security) as the global standard for secure technology. Our university will be co-hosting this upcoming seminar on SSL/TLS with KAGOYA JAPAN.

5. Overview

   As mobile devices become more commonplace, so is the expectation of security risks on the Internet. Google Chrome, which accounts for more than half of all web browsers, displays a lock symbol next to the URL for websites that enable SSL/TLS while for website that do not enable SSL/TLS, a warning message will appear to alert the user of unprotected communication. From December 2019 to February 2020, specifications will be changed to block websites that do not have SSL/TLS enabled. In this seminar, we will be going over how we can move towards implementing SSL/TLS as the default web security option as well as the free options available.
