Abstract

Secure socket layer (SSL) is the most popular protocol used in the Internet for facilitating secure communications. In this retrospective, we summarize our original paper which analyzed the performance and architectural impact of SSL on the servers and provided insights into the functioning and acceleration of SSL. In addition, we describe advancements in the area that have occurred on this topic and also discuss future research opportunities
