TLS 1.3 vs SSL 3.0

Developers should learn and use TLS 1 meets developers should learn about ssl 3. Here's our take.

TLS 1.3

Nice Pick

Developers should learn and use TLS 1

Pros

• 3 to implement modern, secure web connections, as it is the current standard for HTTPS, APIs, and other network protocols to protect against eavesdropping and tampering
• Related to: https, ssl

Cons

• Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case

SSL 3.0

Developers should learn about SSL 3

Pros

• 0 primarily for historical context and to understand the evolution of internet security protocols, as it laid the groundwork for TLS (Transport Layer Security)
• Related to: tls, https

Cons

• Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case

The Verdict

Use TLS 1.3 if: You want 3 to implement modern, secure web connections, as it is the current standard for https, apis, and other network protocols to protect against eavesdropping and tampering and can live with specific tradeoffs depend on your use case.

Use SSL 3.0 if: You prioritize 0 primarily for historical context and to understand the evolution of internet security protocols, as it laid the groundwork for tls (transport layer security) over what TLS 1.3 offers.

The Bottom Line

TLS 1.3 wins

Developers should learn and use TLS 1
