BigSpeed Secure Socket Library is a COM component that dramatically simplifies and accelerates the development of proprietary communication solutions over the Internet. It implements a flexible message-oriented protocol on top of a single TCP connection.
The transfered data are scrambled using on-the-fly 128-bit AES encryption with random session keys, without need of SSL certificates. The security is provided in two different modes: symmetric encryption with shared secret key and asymmetric encryption with 1024-bit public/private keys.
Transport level authentication is available with optional digital fingerprints or secret keys. Building your own virtual private application network will require little effort and you can set the same crypto key on several sites.
