Course Headline:

Master SSL/TLS Hard Parts, Implement Web Security like a Pro, and Become Your Team's Expert in HTTPS!

Course Description:

SSL/TLS is a cornerstone of web security, yet it's often deployed without a full understanding of its intricacies. If you've ever set up a self-signed certificate or switched to HTTPS on the instructions of your InfoSec team, you've encountered SSL/TLS in action. But do you really know what you're doing? Why use TLS 1.2 over TLS 1.1? What's the deal with SSL vs. TLS? Why do browsers sometimes give you a warning when you go HTTPS? What exactly is mTLS, and how does it protect your data?
