SSL


Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) is a protocol for transmitting encrypted data over the Internet or an internal network. SSL works by using public and private keys to encrypt data that is transferred over the SSL connection. Most web browsers support SSL, and many Web sites and Java applications use the protocol to obtain confidential user information, such as credit card numbers.

TIBCO Enterprise Message Service supports SSL. SSL is supported between the following components:

The TIBCO Enterprise Message Service server and the EMS C client library uses OpenSSL for SSL support. You can find out more about OpenSSL at www.openssl.org.

Microsoft’s .NET does not support SSL.

See Chapter 12, Using the SSL Protocol for more information about SSL support in TIBCO Enterprise Message Service.
