TLS & HTTPS Visualized, and HTTPS localhost setup in 2025. This course is specifically designed for developers who want to improve their TLS skills and gain a deep understanding of HTTPS, Certificate Authorities, and secure server configurations. SSL is deprecated and this course focuses on TLS as a protocol used with HTTP/2 and HTTP/3. In this course, you will experience a mix of theory and hands-on practice.

What you will learn:

Setting up a localhost server: Create your own localhost server (Node and Live Server) running over HTTPS/TLS.
Understanding TLS: Understand how TLS protects data in transit.
HTTPS and Certificate Authorities: Understand HTTPS by creating your own Certificate Authority and signing certificates.
Key TLS Concepts: Understand the key concepts of HTTPS and TLS.
Hybrid Key Exchange: Learn the concepts of hybrid key exchange used in TLS 1.3.
Cryptography and Hash: Learn cryptography, hashing, HMAC, and PIK in HTTPS.
TLS Handshake Mechanism: Understand how secure connections are established between the client and the server.
Public Key Infrastructure: Introduction to the framework that enables secure data exchange through digital certificates and key management.
Advanced TLS concepts: Gain insight into hybrid key exchange, HMAC, signatures, hashing techniques, and cipher suites.
OpenSSL and .cnf files: How to use OpenSSL and .cnf files to configure certificates and keys.
Public key extraction: How to extract the public key from a private key.
File formats: Understanding PEM, ASN.1, and PCKS#1 files.
Key Exchange Techniques: Learn the latest hybrid key exchange techniques used in TLS 1.3.
TLS 1.3 handshake process: Understanding the TLS 1.3 handshake process.

Who is this course suitable for?

Web developers eager to host their own HTTPS server with self-signed certificates.
Developers who want to understand TLS and HTTPS.
Experts who want to know more than 99% of developers who think HTTPS is just “secure”.
Interested in HTTP/2 and HTTP/3.
