Home > Security > Use SSL/TLS > Introduction to SSL/TLS Introduction to SSL/TLS Secure Socket Layer (SSL) or Transport Layer Security (TLS) is an effective method of protecting data sent over a local or wide area network (LAN or WAN). It works by encrypting data, such as a print job, sent over a network, so anyone trying to capture it will not be able to read it.
Page 148
Home > Security > Use SSL/TLS > Introduction to SSL/TLS > Brief History of SSL/TLS Brief History of SSL/TLS SSL/TLS was originally created to secure web traffic information, particularly data sent between web browsers and servers. For example, when you use Internet Explorer for Internet Banking and you see https:// and the little padlock icon in the web browser, you are using SSL.
Page 149
Home > Security > Use SSL/TLS > Introduction to SSL/TLS > Benefits of Using SSL/TLS Benefits of Using SSL/TLS The primary benefit of using SSL/TLS is to guarantee secure printing over an IP network by restricting unauthorized users from reading data sent to the machine. SSL's key selling point is that it can be used to print confidential data securely.
