Practical TLS

Don’t worry, you’re not alone.

There’s not a tech in the world that hasn’t googled an ambiguous SSL error.

Without this understanding, you’ll always be banging your head against your keyboard when new errors arise.

You’ll dread the conversation coming up in interviews. And when your company faces a new deployment, you’ll be back at square one. 

Become an SSL/TLS expert without…

• The frustration of the trial and error approach
• Spending thousands of dollars on workshops or bootcamps
• Wasting time digging through confusing, non-holistic resources
• Uncertainty about the practical application of what you’re learning
• Struggling alone with no one to bounce questions off  

You can’t develop an SSL solution without an expert.

Someone’s got to figure that stuff out. Why not you?

Accurately Diagnose Problems

Once you understand how it all fits together, you eliminate the guesswork. As people describe problems, you're able to accurately diagnose the failure and respond appropriately. No more crossing your fingers and hoping your solution works. You identify the problem. And you know how to fix it.

Impress Future Employers

When you interview for IT roles, employers are looking for candidates who can demonstrate technical expertise. If you can demonstrate that you are an expert in SSL/TLS, you’ll gain access to new job opportunities. Instead of hoping SSL won’t come up in your next job interview, you’ll be glad that it did.

Be The SSL/TLS Expert Your Colleagues Come to for Advice

Become the tech hero that steps in when others run into SSL errors. Be the trusted SME that your team depends on. Next time your colleague is perplexed tinkering with a new deployment, they’ll be relieved you were there to answer their questions.

Drive Home Your Skills with Hands-On Application

This course contains over 30 lab tasks so you can practice and master your new skills. You’ll amass practical knowledge with various OpenSSL commands through real-world demonstrations and labs. Gain confidence you can successfully execute the same tasks that emerge on the job. 

‌End‌ ‌Your‌ ‌Status‌ ‌as‌ ‌a ‌Crypto Amateur

The cryptography used in SSL and TLS is the same cryptography used in any other secure communication protocol, like SSH, IKE, and IPsec. Deepening your cryptography knowledge with SSL will pave the way for you to easily become an expert in these other protocols as well.
