Paper Abstract:
|
Transport Layer Security (TLS) is the de facto standard for establishing secure communication channels between two applications that converse over the Internet. However, TLS has functional limitations that prevent data multiplexing under the same secure session. This paper introduces TLS Data Multiplexing (MTLS), an extension of TLS in order to enable the negotiation of multiple applications under the same TLS session. MTLS is able to multiplex all application negotiated data with different security characteristics including application cipher suite and TCP ports. A comparison between TLS and MTLS demonstrates the enhancement our proposed protocol provides. |
