Show HN: OpenSSL Cookbook 2nd Edition
- jgrahamc 12y agoThis is one of the sections of Ristic's excellent book Bulletproof SSL and TLS. I owe him a review of it but the short version is it's great if you need to learn about SSL and TLS and great because it's entirely practical. Highly recommended.
- feld 12y agoThis would be great to have as a paperback, too...
- ivanr 12y agoWell, actually you can, but only as part of Bulletproof SSL and TLS. OpenSSL Cookbook is Bulletproof chapters 11 and 12, plus SSL/TLS Deployment Best Practices (another guide I wrote) in the appendix. Or, you can simply print it yourself. At 94 pages, it's easily doable.
- angersock 12y agoWhere can I buy Bulletproof SSL and TLS?
- ivanr 12y agoYou can get it directly from me (Feisty Duck is my small publishing business) here: https://www.feistyduck.com/books/bulletproof-ssl-and-tls/ https://www.feistyduck.com/books/bulletproof-ssl-and-tls/ This is the best option, because you get all digital formats (PDF, EPUB, and Kindle; there's no DRM), unlimited digital updates of the same edition, and a paperback if you want it. You can also buy it in paperback from Amazon and other online stores, but you can get the digital formats only from Feisty Duck. That said, it's possible to upgrade your paperback for a small free.
- new299 12y agoInteresting! I just submitted my ShowHN which includes a version of OpenSSL compiled to Javascript: https://www.minaterm.com/ https://www.minaterm.com/ It uses it as part of libssh2 to implement a ssh client.
