Easy-to Use OpenSSL Implementation For Your Own Applications

The documentation about how to use it with your own SSL/TLS protocol implementation was not very clear, but after looking at other examples I managed to make some modifications for my needs that were easy enough from there! If you want an open source solution available in multiple languages (including PHP), this one has been tested and proved working over years by many customers already using different kinds of protocols such as those defined by W3C or TLS 1.2 / SNI, so no need here anymore to implement all those things internally yourself like we did before :) Highly recommended if used together properly! We are deploying our web app behind HTTPS only, without any self signed certificates yet - having done several tests against various clients including mobile ones where they cannot be trusted fully due to security reasons. This helped us quite much when adding new features since now everything works out fine even though the connection between client & server can't trust eachother completely.
