The mass adoption of technologies is often followed by efforts to exploit its widespread use as a security threat, and SSL/TLS encryption protocols are no exception.
Encrypted traffic accounts for as much as 90% of internet traffic, and encrypted DDoS cyberattacks are on the rise. Increased customer awareness of cybersecurity, the migration to HTTP/2, and regulatory requirements now mandate the use of encryption in user communications. As a result, the ability to inspect encrypted traffic and mitigate any malicious threats embedded within has become a critical component of any security strategy.
