  1. TLS/SSL - How and Why PCI Flags it but why do we care? By: MadHat Unspecific

  2. SSL – How and Why • What is TLS/SSL? • How does TLS/SSL work? • What is the difference between TLS and SSL? • What is it used for? • Weak Ciphers • How this relates to PCI • Exploitable • SSL-Cipher-Check (tool from Unspecific.com)

  3. What is TLS/SSL? • Transport Layer Security • Secure Socket Layers • Application Layer Protocols • Public/Asymmetric Key Cryptography • OSI Layer 6

  4. How does TLS/SSL work? • Encryption Protocol, Key Length, Hashing Algorithm • Authentication • Handshake • Request • Protocols Supported • Digital Certificate • Session Keys

  5. What is it used for? • Security & Data Integrity • Prevents Eavesdropping, tampering & message forgery • HTTP is most famous as HTTPS • Any layer 7 protocol, POP3, IMAP, SMTP, FTP • OpenVPN • Stunnel • Ncat (included with Nmap)

  6. Weak Ciphers • Old Protocols • SSLv2 • Key Strength • 40bit & 56bit ciphers • RC2, RC4, NULL • Weak Hash Algorithms • DES • ADH - anonymous DH cipher

  7. How this relates to PCI& Other Standards • PCI 4.1 - Use strong cryptography and security protocols such as SSL/TLS or IPSEC to safeguard sensitive cardholder data during transmission over open, public networks.

  8. Exploitable • Man in the Middle • Decryption of Communications

  9. SSL-Cipher-Check • OpenSSL binary • Checks ALL supported Ciphers • openssl ciphers • openssl s_client -$protocol -cipher $cipher -connect $host:$port • ssl_dump.logRaw openssl output

  10. SSL-Cipher-Check • $ ./ssl-cipher-check.pl : SSL Cipher Check: 1.1 : written by Lee 'MadHat' Heath (at) Unspecific.comUsage: ./ssl-cipher-check.pl [ -dvwas ] <host> [<port>]default port is 443-d Add debug info (show it all, lots of stuff)-v Verbose. Show more info about what is found-w Show only weak ciphers enabled.-a Show all ciphers, enabled or not-s Show only the STRONG ciphers enabled.
