SSL proxy

SSL is a protocol that provides modern network encryption technology and is characterized by high security. That is why proxies working through this protocol guarantee stable and protected access to the Internet.

A proxy is an intermediary dealing with data encryption and decryption between the client and the destination server requiring secure access. Its working principle is as follows: the source server is authenticated, then the public key used is replaced by a key known to the intermediary server. A new certificate signed with its own public key is generated.

When using an SSL connection, all data is securely encrypted, completely cutting off the possibility of third-party users interfering with the information being transmitted.

Advantages of SSL proxy include:

• The ability to use modern protocols and cyphers (the user will have the ability to access any resource, which cannot be guaranteed with other, older protocols);
• Protection against threats, even if the incoming traffic is encrypted;
• Open access to advanced security services and decrypted traffic to obtain information about the resource, including its reliability.

The use of certificates and private key exchange guarantees the security of all transmitted data. At the same time, the browser will have the ability to verify the authenticity and security of the visited web resource.
