Openssl is an implementation of the TLS protocol which is very popular with Linux distros. It is frequently called Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) and the two terms are used interchangeably by lots of people. Transport Layer Security (TLS) is a protocol to allow two computers to communicate securely over the internet using encryption.
This blog post will clear up the confusion and help explain how to deal with APIs that are having problems. There seems to be a lot of confusion about openssl versions, TLS versions, and how they work. The companies whose API is being used say they don’t support openssl 1.0.1e and/or TLSv1.2 is not support and the server will have to use TLSv1.0. As we’ve upgraded a lot of our servers to openssl 1.0.1e we’ve seen a handful of problems with APIs or payment gateways.
