gnutls: Development Library for TLS applications¹

Package available in: [trunk] [8.0] [7.0] [6.0] [2.1]

GnuTLS is a project that aims to develop a library which provides a secure layer, over a reliable transport layer. Currently the GnuTLS library implements the proposed standards by the IETF's TLS working group.

Quoting from RFC2246 - the TLS 1.0 protocol specification: "The TLS protocol provides communications privacy over the Internet. The protocol allows client/server applications to communicate in a way that is designed to prevent eavesdropping, tampering, or message forgery."
