TLS Protocol

Transport Layer Security (TLS) is a protocol that provides secure authentication and transmits encrypted data over the Internet or an internal network.

The TLS protocol is complex, and this chapter is not a complete description of TLS. Instead, this chapter describes how to configure TLS in the TIBCO Enterprise Message Service server and in client applications that communicate with the server. For a more complete description of TLS, see the TLS specification at https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5246 and the article at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transport_Layer_Security.

Note: If end-to-end data security is necessary, note that it requires using an encrypted storage. For example for file stores, that would involve placing the EMS store files in an encrypted file system.
