Secure programming with the OpenSSL API, Part 1: Overview of the API
Learning how to use the API for OpenSSL -- the best-known open library for secure communication -- can be intimidating, because the documentation is incomplete. Fill in the gaps, and tame the API, with the tips in this article. After setting up a basic connection, see how to use OpenSSL's BIO library to set up both a secured and unsecured connection. And learn a bit about error detection as well. 		22 Jul 2004  
 
Secure programming with the OpenSSL API, Part 2: Secure handshake
Securing the handshake during a Secure Sockets Layer session (SSL) is vital, since almost all of the security involving the connection is set up inside the handshake. Learn how to secure the SSL handshake against a man in the middle (MITM) attack -- in which the intruding party masquerades as another, trusted source. This article also introduces the concept of digital certificates and how the OpenSSL API handles them. 		03 May 2005  
 
Secure programming with the OpenSSL API, Part 3: Providing a secure service
