(** Transport layer security
[TLS] is an implementation of
{{:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transport_Layer_Security}transport
layer security} in OCaml. TLS is a widely used security protocol
which establishes an end-to-end secure channel (with optional
(mutual) authentication) between two endpoints. It uses TCP/IP as
transport. This library supports all four versions of TLS:
{{:https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc8446}1.3, RFC8446},
{{:https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5246}1.2, RFC5246},
{{:https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4346}1.1, RFC4346}, and
{{:https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2246}1.0, RFC2246}. SSL, the
previous protocol definition, is not supported.
TLS is algorithmically agile: protocol version, key exchange
algorithm, symmetric cipher, and message authentication code are
negotiated upon connection.
This library implements several extensions of TLS,
{{:https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3268}AES ciphers},
{{:https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4366}TLS extensions} (such as
server name indication, SNI),
{{:https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5746}Renegotiation extension},
{{:https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7627}Session Hash and Extended
Master Secret Extension}.
This library does not contain insecure cipher suites (such as
single DES, export ciphers, ...). It does not expose the server
time in the server random, requires secure renegotiation.
This library consists of a core, implemented in a purely
functional matter ({!Engine}, this module), and effectful parts:
{!Tls_lwt} and {!Tls_mirage}.
