Securing communications with STUNNEL
Stunnel is a proxy designed to add TLS encryption functionality to existing clients and servers without any changes in the programs’ code. What STUNNEL basically does is that it turns any insecure TCP port into a secure encrypted port using OpenSSL package for cryptography. STUNNEL is very simple as it will accept a non-secure connection, add TLS encryption and send it to a remote host. This may come in use in scenarios where we have a hope which for any reason does not support TLS but our backend does. In order to protect at least the data in transit between […]
