Скачать или смотреть Build SSL/TLS Scanner in Python

An SSL/TLS Scanner is a tool that checks a website or server’s secure communication setup—specifically, how it uses SSL or TLS (which are the protocols that keep your data encrypted when you visit sites over HTTPS). It looks for things like expired certificates, weak ciphers, outdated versions, or misconfigurations that could leave the door open to attacks. Think of it like doing a security health check on a website's encryption. 🛡️🔍

Now, if students build their own SSL/TLS Scanner in Python, here’s what they’re really learning:

🔐 How SSL/TLS handshakes work behind the scenes—what actually happens when your browser says "secure".

📜 How to pull certificate details from a server and read expiration dates, issuer info, and more.

🧠 How to identify vulnerabilities like weak encryption algorithms or protocol downgrades.

🛠️ How to use libraries like ssl, socket, and maybe even OpenSSL in Python.

⚠️ How to think like a security auditor, spotting misconfigs before attackers do.

They’re not just coding a scanner—they’re learning how to spot weaknesses in real-world encryption setups. This kind of skill is 🔑 for anyone heading into penetration testing, red teaming, or security engineering.
