Transport Layer Security: Concepts, Extensions, and Historical Evolution

1. Transport Layer Security Concepts

1.1 TLS Session Resumption

One notable question regarding TLS session resumption is why the order of ClientFinished and ServerFinished is reversed. This reversal might be related to optimizing the session resumption process, potentially reducing latency and improving the overall efficiency of re - establishing a session.

1.2 TLS Renegotiation

The Ray - Dispensa attack is a concern in TLS. A relevant query is whether this attack still works if the client always requests to use TLS session resumption. Understanding this can help in evaluating the security of systems that rely on session resumption during renegotiation.
