Merged TLS and SSL. Hooray! The Anome
| Contents |
Name of article?
Shouldn't this now be moved to Secure Sockets Layer, since that is by far the most common term? anthony (see warning)
I agree with anthony. Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox, to name just two browsers, only have SSL 2.0/3.0 enabled by default; TLS 1.0 is not even supported by default. The term "TLS" is much less known and should be put in second place. --Eruionnyron 12:43, 9 Feb 2005 (UTC)
Agreed. That was my first question after seeing it listed on Wikipedia:Peer review. If SSL is more popular, or is the more common term (and includes TLS), then the article should be moved. -- Wapcaplet 19:39, 14 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- I also agree (although we may have to move it back again in a couple of years...) — Matt Crypto 02:19, 15 Feb 2005 (UTC)
Redundant internal links
I removed a few (redundant) internal links. The text use to be:
- RFC 3268: "AES Ciphersuites for TLS". Adds Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) ciphersuites to the previously existing symmetric ciphers, like RC2, RC4, International Data Encryption Algorithm (IDEA), Data Encryption Standard (DES), and Triple DES.
Any objections? --Eruionnyron 14:39, 9 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Seems like an obvious improvement to me. — Matt Crypto 02:19, 15 Feb 2005 (UTC)
SSL vs. TLS
What's the diff? --lenehey
Terms we use
We currently say "The term "SSL" as used here applies to both protocols unless clarified by context." I suggest we use the term "SSL/TLS" for this purpose. That way, it's clearler which protocol is being discusses at any given point. — Matt Crypto 13:05, 16 Mar 2005 (UTC)
