C TLS

Open-source C projects categorized as TLS

Transport Layer Security (TLS), the successor of the now-deprecated Secure Sockets Layer (SSL), is a cryptographic protocol designed to provide communications security over a computer network.

Top 22 C TLS Projects

  • OpenSSL

    TLS/SSL and crypto library

  • Project mention: Heartbleed and XZ Backdoor Learnings: Open Source Infrastructure Can Be Improved Efficiently With Moderate Funding | dev.to | 2024-04-07

    Today, April 7th, 2024, marks the 10-year anniversary since CVE-2014-0160 was published. This security vulnerability known as "Heartbleed" was a flaw in the OpenSSL cryptography software, the most popular option to implement Transport Layer Security (TLS). In more layman's terms, if you type https:// in your browser address bar, chances are high that you are interacting with OpenSSL.

  • Project mention: OpenWrt 23.05 | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-10-13

    It's work in progress: https://github.com/Mbed-TLS/mbedtls/blob/development/docs/ar...

    Newer version have okay-ish support, I'd guess the next OpenWRT release will have it again.
