3 Setting Up TLS/SSL With Other Tools

This chapter describes some other tools available for setting up TLS/SSL that you might consider.

Several factors can influence the choice of tool. For example, some tools are more light weight than others, or some are targeted to specific environments, such as the keytool for Java. Some not only cover certificates infrastructure management but also include other features, APIs, and libraries for developing applications that enable various other secure network protocols and security standards. Although this book doesn't provide details about such features, you can find more information about them in corresponding manual pages and documentation from open source projects.
