OpenSSL, arguably the world’s most important Web security library with its support for Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) and Transport Layer Security (TLS) in such popular Web servers as Apache and Nginx, has had real trouble. First, there was HeartBleed and more recently there is FREAK. It’s been one serious security problem after another. Now, the NCC Group, a well-regarded security company, will be auditing OpenSSL’s code to catch errors before they appear in the wild.
