Özet:Today, secure communication channels are mostly set up via certificate-based protocols, such as Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) and Transport Layer Security (TLS). Although they have been used for years and in so many areas, from e-commerce and internet banking to secure channel needs in military, there have been several attacks on their security model, which forced researchers to make studies on them. In this thesis, we will explain their security model, the vulnerabilities discovered so far, the precautions for these vulnerabilities and at the end, we will focus on SSL authentication piece and the popular solutions for improving SSL server authentication, such as Certificate Pinning, Convergence and Certificate Transparency which are all in the active research area to define the future of SSL and TLS protocols.
