Description

OpenSSL is an open source software library for Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) and Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocols. It is used to secure communications between two parties, often a web server and a client, and provides secure data transmission over the Internet. OpenSSL is a popular choice for securing websites, mobile applications, and other Internet-based services. It also supports a wide range of cryptographic algorithms, allowing for secure communication between clients and servers. OpenSSL is used to encrypt communications, authenticate users and servers, and provide digital signatures. It also supports two-factor authentication and other security measures. OpenSSL is available for multiple platforms, including Windows, Linux, and Mac OS X.
