SSL/TLS Tunnel

The Secure Sockets Layer, also known as SSL, was originally developed by Netscape Communications to allow secure transport of data over the Internet. Secure transport of data involves more than just encrypting data. SSL performs authentication and data encryption.

The Transport Layer Security (TLS) tunnel encrypts all data sent over the TCP connection. The TLS tunnel provides a more secure protocol across the Internet, gives the MFT IBM i Platform Server product the capability to encrypt all the data sent from a client to a server. The TLS tunnel encrypts all data sent between the initiator and the responder programs. This encryption is performed at the TCP sockets layer, not at the application layer.
