3 Setting Up TLS/SSL With Other Tools

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

There are various reasons to choose one tool over another. 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 does not provide details about such features, you can find more information about them in corresponding manual pages and documentation from opensource projects.
