The Secure Socket Layer (SSL) and its variant, Transport Layer Security (TLS), are used toward ensuring server security. This paper characterizes the cryptographic strength of public servers running SSL/TLS. The paper presents a tool developed for this purpose, the Probing SSL Security Tool (PSST), and evaluates over 19,000 servers. The paper exposes the great diversity in the levels of cryptographic strength that is supported on the Internet. Some of the discouraging results show that most sites still support the insecure SSL 2.0, weak export-level grades of encryption ciphers, or weak RSA key strengths.
