From what we know as long as it is a custom 1024-bit DH key and you're not being actively targeted by the NSA you are probably okay. That said, you should still upgrade to 2048-bit (or higher, if you're paranoid) ASAP.

US credit cards (both chip and non-chip) have PINs they're just used only at ATMs when taking cash advances. The article jdeibele referred to said that if you forced people to use their PINs all the time the rate of cash advance fraud

It seems to me like it's only going to get worse as more people get chip cards. The cafeteria at the office where I work replaced their card machine earlier this year with a model that accepts EMV cards and since we have a lot of empl

The test site requires SNI and only accepts TLS 1.1 and 1.2 with ECDHE/DHE+AES-GCM/AES-CBC ciphers[0]. I'm guessing whatever SSL library your libcurl is linked against only supports TLS 1.0, doesn't support SNI, or doesn
