This protocol operates in a client-server architecture and focuses mainly on verifying the server to which the client wants to establish a connection (second-party authorization is also possible with an additional three requests). SSL uses previously known algorithms and techniques for data encryption (symmetric and asymmetric encryption).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The protocol itself is the result of the merger of two smaller groups of subprotocols &#8211; <strong>SSL Handshake<\/strong>, <strong>SSL Alert Protocol<\/strong>, <strong>SSL Change Cipher<\/strong> , and <strong>SSL Record Protocol<\/strong>.<br>The parameter that determines the strength of SSL encryption is the length of the key. For asymmetric keys, NIST currently recommends a key length of 2048 bits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n<div id=\"mybox-3854306083\" class=\"mybox-content mybox-entity-placement\"><div class=\"early-access-banner-inpost\">\r\n  <div class=\"banner-left-inpost\">\r\n    <div class=\"icon-box-inpost\">\r\n      <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mybox.com\/help\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/square-info-icon.svg\" alt=\"Info\">\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"text-box-inpost\">\r\n      <span class=\"label-inpost\"><span class=\"translation-block translation-block-banner-text\">Early access<\/span><\/span>\r\n      <h4><span class=\"translation-block translation-block-banner-text\">Still need help?<\/span><\/h4>\r\n      <p><span class=\"translation-block translation-block-banner-text\">Contact our customer service team.<\/span><\/p>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n  <\/div>\r\n\r\n  <div class=\"banner-right-inpost\">\r\n    <a href=\"https:\/\/panel.mybox.com\/helpdesk2\/v\/list\/\" class=\"banner-button-inpost\"><span class=\"translation-block translation-block-banner-text\">Message us<\/span><\/a>\r\n  <\/div>\r\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"translation-block translation-block-merged\"><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">SSL Protocol Versions:<br>&#8211; SSL 1<br>&#8211; SSL 2<br>&#8211; SSL 3<br>&#8211; TLS 1.0<br>&#8211; TLS 1.1<br>&#8211; TLS 1.2<br>&#8211; TLS 1.3<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"template":"","format":"standard","manualknowledgebasecat":[25],"manual_kb_tag":[912,1815,915,1816,944,1817,1424,1818,1707,1819,1736,1820,1739,1749,1807,1808,1809,1810,1811,1812,1813,854,1814],"class_list":["post-819","manual_kb","type-manual_kb","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","manualknowledgebasecat-hosting","manual_kb_tag-tls-protocol","manual_kb_tag-symmetric-encryption","manual_kb_tag-data-encryption","manual_kb_tag-asymmetric-encryption","manual_kb_tag-public-key-cryptography","manual_kb_tag-key-length","manual_kb_tag-server-authentication","manual_kb_tag-204-bit-key","manual_kb_tag-client-server-architecture","manual_kb_tag-protocol-versions","manual_kb_tag-protocols","manual_kb_tag-tls","manual_kb_tag-ssl-protocol","manual_kb_tag-encryption","manual_kb_tag-secure-socket-layer","manual_kb_tag-encrypted-data","manual_kb_tag-secure-transmission","manual_kb_tag-mutual-authentication","manual_kb_tag-handshake-protocol","manual_kb_tag-alert-protocol","manual_kb_tag-change-cipher","manual_kb_tag-transport-layer-security","manual_kb_tag-record-protocol"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mybox.com\/help\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/manual_kb\/819","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mybox.com\/help\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/manual_kb"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mybox.com\/help\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/manual_kb"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mybox.com\/help\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/mybox.com\/help\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/manual_kb\/819\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mybox.com\/help\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=819"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"manualknowledgebasecat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mybox.com\/help\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/manualknowledgebasecat?post=819"},{"taxonomy":"manual_kb_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mybox.com\/help\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/manual_kb_tag?post=819"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
