The OpenSSL Project is a collaborative effort to develop a robust,
|
|
|
|
|
commercial-grade, full-featured, and Open Source toolkit implementing
|
|
|
|
|
the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL v2/v3) and Transport Layer Security
|
|
|
|
|
(TLS v1) protocols with full-strength cryptography world-wide. The
|
|
|
|
|
project is managed by a worldwide community of volunteers that use
|
|
|
|
|
the Internet to communicate, plan, and develop the OpenSSL tookit
|
|
|
|
|
and its related documentation.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
OpenSSL is based on the excellent SSLeay library developed by Eric
|
|
|
|
|
A. Young and Tim J. Hudson. The OpenSSL toolkit is licensed under
|
|
|
|
|
an Apache-style licence, which basically means that you are free
|
|
|
|
|
to get and use it for commercial and non-commercial purposes subject
|
|
|
|
|
to some simple license conditions.
