:I've never like the TLS term, since it tends to coerce OSI terminology into the IPS. Is end-to-end security any better, and would it pick up https? Of course, nothing is clean when one gets into security proxies...[[User:Howard C. Berkowitz|Howard C. Berkowitz]] 21:22, 28 November 2008 (UTC)

What is the right way to set up naming for this group of articles? My guess is one article, Transport Layer Security (the protocol's current name) with [[TLS], Secure Sockets Layer and SSL all redirecting to it. But there are questions. Should this one remain as a separate article? Should the titles use lowercase? Where does https fit in? Sandy Harris 04:34, 28 November 2008 (UTC)

I've never like the TLS term, since it tends to coerce OSI terminology into the IPS. Is end-to-end security any better, and would it pick up https? Of course, nothing is clean when one gets into security proxies...Howard C. Berkowitz 21:22, 28 November 2008 (UTC)
