Secure communication
|
|
====================
|
|
|
|
Inter-device communication is a serious security concern.
|
|
Between large project errors, such as Heartbleed, or more
|
|
advanced attacks such as BEAST and CRIME, secure methods of
|
|
communication over a network are becoming more important. It should
|
|
be remembered, however that encryption should be applied as one part
|
|
of a larger security strategy. The compromise of an endpoint means
|
|
that an attacker no longer needs to break the encryption used, but
|
|
is able to view and manipulate messages as they are processed by
|
|
the system.
|
|
|
|
This chapter will review several features around configuring TLS to
|
|
secure both internal and external resources, and will call out
|
|
specific categories of systems that should be given specific
|
|
attention.
