This document discusses SSL certificates, including their purpose for server/client authentication and secure data transfer. It covers the process of requesting, signing, installing and verifying certificates from both Certificate Authorities (CAs) and self-signing. The different types of SSL certificates - DV, OV and EV - are explained along with OpenSSL tools, certificate structure, chain of trust, trust stores, certificate pinning and free certificate options like Let's Encrypt.
SSL is an acronym for Secure Sockets Layer. It is a protocol used for authenticating and encrypting web traffic. For web traffic to be authenticated means that your browser is able to verify the identity of the remote server.

The Last Pickle: Hardening Apache Cassandra for Compliance (or Paranoia).DataStax Academy
Security is always at odds with usability, particularly in the context of operations and development. More so when dealing with a distributed system such as Apache Cassandra. In this presentation, we'll walk through the steps required to completely secure a Cassandra cluster to meet most regulatory and compliance guidelines.
Topics will include:
- Encrypting cross-DC traffic
- Different types of at-rest disk encryption options available (and how to tune them)
- Configuring SSL for inter-cluster communication
- Configuring SSL between clients and the API
- Configuring and managing client authentication
Attendees will leave this presentation with the knowledge required to harden Cassandra to meet most guidelines imposed by regulations and compliance.
SSL, more strictly called Transport Layer Security (TLS), is a means to encrypt data that is in flight between software components, whether within your data center or between that and your end users' devices. This prevents eavesdroppers seeing confidential information, such as credit card numbers or database passwords, and ensures that components are communicating with who they they think they are. So why isn't SSL/TLS used for all electronic communications? Firstly it is, almost by definition, "slightly tricky" to configure and errors are not terribly informative when things don't work (why would you help a hacker?!). Secondly there is a performance overhead for running TLS, although with modern hardware this is probably less of a concern than it used to be.
This session describes how to configure TLS at all layers within a Fusion Middleware stack - from the front-end Oracle HTTP Server, right through to communications with the database.
This platform was first given by Simon Haslam (eProseed UK) and Jacco Landlust (ING) at the OGh Fusion Middleware Experience event in February 2016.
InSecure Remote Operations - NullCon 2023 by Yossi SassiYossi Sassi
Every admin tool is an attack tool, yet there are no good or bad shells - that part is up to you. Coming from dozens of engagements consulting various role-based remote operations architectures & Red Team assessments for organizations in 4 continents, with a fresh research hijacking full tokens from network logon-type sessions - we’ll dive into a technical, hands-on set of examples for both Offensive and Defensive teams, of what SUCKS and what ROCKS on the Windows ‘Living off the land’ remote admin operations, Protocols, and APIs. We'll talk about the Pros and Cons of jump server architectures, as well as role-based shells, limiting PowerShell in creative ways. We'll also introduce fresh research to achieve Full Token hijack from network logon-type sessions, without any hash and/or TGT!

Securing Microservices using Play and Akka HTTPRafal Gancarz
Going down the microservices route makes a lot of things around creating and maintaining large systems easier but it comes at a cost too, particularly associated with challenges around security. While securing monolithic applications was a relatively well understood area, the same can't be said about microservice based architectures.
This presentation covers how implementing microservices affects the security of distributed systems, outlines pros and cons of several standards and common practices and offers practical suggestions for securing microservice based systems using Play and Akka HTTP.
Alban Diquet, Data Theorem
Thomas Sileo, Data Theorem
Over the last two years, we've received and analyzed more than three million SSL validation failure reports from more than a thousand of iOS and Android apps available on the Stores, and used all around the world. From mobile banking to music apps, each report was triggered because an unknown or unexpected certificate was being served to the app, preventing it from establishing a secure connection to its server via SSL/TLS.
We've analyzed each of these reports to understand what caused the SSL connection to fail, and then grouped similar failures into various classes of SSL incidents. Throughout this presentation, we will describe the analysis we've made and present our findings.
First, we will provide a high-level overview of where, how, and why SSL incidents are occurring across the world for iOS and Android users, and describe the various classes of incidents we've detected. Some of these types of incidents, such as corporate devices performing traffic inspection, are well-known and understood, although we will provide new insights into how widespread they are.
Then, we will take a closer look at a few notable incidents we detected, which have been caused by unexpected, or even suspicious actors. We will describe our investigations and what we found.
Lastly, we will provide real-world solutions on how to protect apps against traffic interception and attacks, as a mobile developer.
Cisco iso based CA (certificate authority)Netwax Lab
IOS CA is short for Certificate Authority on IOS. It's a simple, yet very powerful tool to deploy certificates
in environments where PKI is needed for security reasons.
In cryptography, a certificate authority or certification authority (CA) is an entity that issues digital
certificates. A digital certificate certifies the ownership of a public key by the named subject of the
certificate. This allows others (relying parties) to rely upon signatures or on assertions made by the
private key that corresponds to the certified public key. In this model of trust relationships, a CA is a
trusted third party - trusted both by the subject (owner) of the certificate and by the party relying upon
the certificate.

3. Purpose of SSL certificates
• Server [/Client] authentication for
source [/dest] validation and trust.
• Secure data transfer using encryption
SSL Communication Process
1. Server authentication (Handshake)
2. Key Exchange
3. Encrypted data transfer (Record)
Highest SSL Version, Ciphers Supported,
Data Compression Methods,
Session Id = 0,
Random Data
Selected SSL Version, Selected Cipher,
Selected Data Compression Method, Assigned
Session Id, Random Data, Server Certificate
(Client Certificate Request)
Server Hello Done
Indicates that further communication to server will be encrypted
Digest of all SSL handshake commands for integrity check
Indicates that further communication to client will be encrypted
Digest of all SSL handshake commands for integrity check
4. Request, sign, install and verify
3. Get it signed by CA, say mysite.crt
Cert verification by browser
▶ openssl genrsa -out mysite.key 4096
▶ openssl req -new -key mysite.key -out mysite.csr
2. Send mysite.csr to the CA of your choice.
1. Generate the private key and certificate signing request for your site.
4. Install the certificate
▶ openssl req -x509 -newkey rsa:4096 -keyout mysite.key -out mysite.crt -days 365
CA Signed
Self Signed
1. Generate the private key and self signed certificate for 365days.
2. Install the certificate
5. SSL Certificate types (DV,OV,EV)
• DV – Domain Validated (Basic)

12. Trust Stores
• Application trust stores
• Browser
• Public keys of all major CAs come with release
• Java (tomcat,coldfusion etc.)
• Mostly there but less frequently updated.
• You need to take care if customized.
