About this video
Cipher Suites are the heart of Security in TLS and SSL and are simply explained in this lesson. In each TLS session, a Client and Server agree on a Cipher Suite to use to secure the ensuing data transfer. A Cipher Suite specifies protocols for the following services: Key Exchange, Authentication, Encryption, and Hashing.
To understand more of the cryptography that accomplishes each of the services above, check out the previous lessons in this SSL and TLS deep dive series.
