Guide to Testing an SSL Connection Using OpenSSL
In this tutorial, we will provide helpful information about SSL certificates, SSL connections and testing an SSL connection using OpenSSL. The SSL certificates are necessary for domain names since they display essential information for verifying the website’s owner. It also encrypts the web traffic with SSL/TLS, including the public key, the certificate authority, and the associated subdomains. The traffic is through HTTPS (Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure) when there is a valid SSL certificate, and this technology encrypts the data sent between a website and a browser. It prevents hackers from seeing or stealing any information, like personal data.
In the following paragraphs, we will proceed with the OpenSSL as software, how to install it, and how to test the SSL connections. Let’s get started!
