OCSP Stapling: Improved Performance and Security, a Win-Win
February 14, 2013 by Jeremy Rowley CASC OCSP Revocation SSL/TLS
The launch of the CASC has given its members a unique platform through which we can educate users about online security and the best practices in utilizing SSL. That’s why we’ve decided to pair the group’s launch with a focused effort on OCSP stapling. Why OCSP stapling? For one, stapling is already supported by IIS and the newest versions of Apache and nginx. Although server software does not enable OCSP by default, servers can be re-configured with a little education.
