TLS and PKI, how does that padlock in the corner work and get a perfect score

Presented at May Contain Hackers (MCH2022), July 24, 2022, 4 p.m. (90 minutes).

The TLS protocol and your server configuration is pretty significant to user security. In this workshop we talk about the technical theory behind the scene and when you take your laptop and root passwords with you we can tune your server configuration to a testssl.sh, SSLLabs or internet.nl perfect score!

The TLS protocol and your server configuration is pretty significant to user security. In this workshop we talk about the technical theory behind the scene. Also the CA and validation stages are discussed to understand what we're doing. So take your laptop and root passwords with you. Let's tune your server configuration with tools like testssl.sh, SSLLabs or internet.nl for a perfect score! Also common mistakes and how to analyse them will be handled in the workshop. This will help you in private and professional life too. NginX and Apache are most common, but I also like to pick up the challenge to learn more about other options. Control over your DNS will be assistive too.
