An interactive concept flow for tls establishes keys and authenticates a peer, from its assumptions through the main operation and boundary checks.
trace / request.md
readyTLS protects an application connection by negotiating cryptographic parameters, establishing shared traffic keys, and authenticating a server certificate under a trust policy. Modern TLS separates the handshake that sets up security from the encrypted application records that carry HTTP or another protocol.
Use the stages in order to explain tls establishes keys and authenticates a peer. Each stage makes one assumption visible: what the operation promises, what representation it uses, how state changes, which boundary can invalidate a shortcut, and what evidence confirms the result.
For a worked explanation, continue to the topic article and execution trace.
