    There are many notable open-source projects (SSLyze, CipherScan, testssl.sh, tls-scan, …) and several SaaS solutions (CryptCheck, CypherCraft, Hardenize, ImmuniWeb, Mozilla Observatory, SSL Labs, …) to do a security setting analysis, especially when we are talking about TLS, which is the most common and popular cryptographic protocol. However, most of these tools heavily depend on one or more versions of one or more cryptographic protocol libraries, like GnuTLS, OpenSSL, or wolfSSL. But why is this such a problem?

What are some alternatives?

When comparing ssldump and tls-scan you can also consider the following projects:

ecapture - Capture SSL/TLS text content without a CA certificate using eBPF. This tool is compatible with Linux/Android x86_64/aarch64.

sslyze - Fast and powerful SSL/TLS scanning library.

haproxy - HAProxy Load Balancer's development branch (mirror of git.haproxy.org)

engine - A reference implementation of the Russian GOST crypto algorithms for OpenSSL

lsquic - LiteSpeed QUIC and HTTP/3 Library

http-observatory - Mozilla HTTP Observatory

wolfssl - The wolfSSL library is a small, fast, portable implementation of TLS/SSL for embedded devices to the cloud. wolfSSL supports up to TLS 1.3!

testssl.sh - Testing TLS/SSL encryption anywhere on any port

SoftEther - Cross-platform multi-protocol VPN software. Pull requests are welcome. The stable version is available at https://github.com/SoftEtherVPN/SoftEtherVPN_Stable.

cipherscan - A very simple way to find out which SSL ciphersuites are supported by a target.

Suricata - Suricata is a network Intrusion Detection System, Intrusion Prevention System and Network Security Monitoring engine developed by the OISF and the Suricata community.

openssl - Fork of OpenSSL 1.1.1 that includes prototype quantum-resistant algorithms and ciphersuites based on liboqs [OQS-OpenSSL 1.1.1 is NO LONGER SUPPORTED, please switch to OQS-Provider for OpenSSL 3]
