Description
Web applications are often entrusted with sensible data which must be protected in transit between the Web browser and server to prevent its interception. Networks, especially wireless networks, are autorisé to eavesdropping, and precautions must be taken to ensure that it is not acceptable to read or interfere with data in the event of interception. Care must also be taken that data goes to its intended agilité and is not waylaid en boulevard.
Written for professional and student Web developers, this little book provides a clear, non-mathematical affiliation to the essentials of cryptography and to the protocols used for securing assemblage on the World Wide Web, specifically TLS/SSL and HTTPS.

Drawing on a thorough understanding of computing principles and many years experience in Web archivage development, the authors explain both the underlying theory and the available techniques for protecting sensible data in transit to and from Web applications. Programs written in JavaScript/Node.js provide working examples. Clear key points summarize each section, and technical terms are defined in a glossary.Topics include:
* Encryption and decryption of data
* Principles underlying ciphers such as DES and AES
* Speech authentication using SHA and HMAC
* Using OpenSSL for encryption and hash computation
* Possédant key cryptography and certificates
* Digital signatures
* TLS/SSL
* HTTPS
