Description

Transport Layer Security is one of the least well-understood parts of system administration. This tutorial will take you into a deep dive into the management of TLS. We'll discuss:

  • how TLS Works
  • what TLS provides, and what it doesn't
  • assessing TLS configurations
  • the ACME protocol and Let's Encrypt
  • OCSP and Certificate Revocation
  • CAA, HSTS, and Certificate Transparency
  • debugging TLS

You'll leave with the understanding of TLS that every sysadmin should have.
