Improving the security level of the information system using the SSL protocol

Abstract

An important role in the organization of production sites is played by the security of information for the process of planning the management of the production site. Information security is a very important component of any information system used on the production site. Improving the quality of information system security can be achieved only by a set of data protection measures. The results of the implementation of these measures should provide a clear picture of the information system used, about users, about the separation of powers, etc., which will allow making the right management decisions in the event of an intrusion into the system. Improving the security of information systems, taking into account modern requirements of information security policies, involves the development of data protection concepts and the introduction of the latest encryption methods into the information system. The paper presents the concept of building an information system using data encryption based on SSL encryption. SSL — Secure Socket Layer, the level of secure sockets. SSL encryption is characterized by the creation of a cipher with a public key. This allows you to authenticate the user and the server by resorting to digital signature technology. In addition, this is how the session key is generated to develop a fast symmetric cipher algorithm, which allows you to encrypt a large mass of information.
