🔒The TLS handshake is a critical part of the TLS protocol and is responsible for establishing secure communication between a client and server.
🔑During the handshake, the client and server negotiate the encryption algorithm, exchange public keys, and verify each other's identities.
🌐TLS 1.2 is widely used and considered secure, but newer versions like TLS 1.3 offer improved security and performance.
🔒The handshake involves multiple messages, including the Client Hello, Server Hello, Certificate, and Server Key Exchange.
⏰The TLS handshake happens at the beginning of a connection and ensures that data exchanged between the client and server is encrypted and secure.
