SSL/TSL is one of the backbone technologies of WWW. It provides secure communication over the network. However, as it happens often with complex technologies, it tends to be surrounded by a lot of jargon, which makes it difficult to understand. But it doesn't have to be like that.
In this talk, in layman's terms, I will explain how SSL/TSL works and how it helps to address 3 critical questions of secure communication:
* Is my message read only by authorised receivers?
* Can I trust that I'm sending the message to the right receiver?
* Can I be sure that my message was not changed during transport?
