Installing and Securing the Apache Webserver with SSL The purpose of this paper is to describe, in detail, how to install and configure the Apache Web Server with SSL (Secure Socket Layer) support. Today more than ever, sensitive data can no longer be trusted to be sent across the Internet in plain text. SSL adds a layer of encryption to data being sent across an http stream ensuring the that data is transmitted with a large degree of protection from prying eyes. SSL is not the be all and end all of securing data; SSL only protects the data in transit. Once the data has reached its destination it no longer benefits from SSL's encrypted tunnel and could fall prey to prying eyes. This is only too common an occurrence in today's world of e-commerce.

Building a secure web server using Apache and OpenSSL Using Apache, mod-ssl and OpenSSL we can create a secure server quickly and easily. We also no longer have to worry in the U.S. about the RSA encryption. Prior to Sept. 6, 2000 the RSA algorithm was fully patended by RSA. The patent officially expires on September 20, 2000, but RSA lifted the patent a little earlier. Because of this we no longer need to use the RSAREF package, which is still under license from RSA.
