SSL – is it broken?
Following a further security certificate breach, is it time to accept that the SSL ecosystem is broken?
SSL is responsible for many things such as to
- encrypt information to prevent snooping;
- prevent the replay of packets;
- authenticate the server, and
- authenticate the client.

World IPv6 Day
On the 8th June 2011 the World IPv6 Day begins. Many major organisations will be taking part by enabling IPv6 on their main URLs for one day. Octave Computing Limited will be taking part. In fact we have been IPv6-connected on all services since our domain was registered. We welcome any progress towards restoring the end-to-end connectivity that made the Internet into what it was.
