tls-certificate-analysis

To extract the certificate authority and SANs from a TLS certificate, you can use automated analysis tools. This process identifies the issuer and subject alternative names to infer hosting and security practices.

JARM fingerprinting is a technique that generates a unique hash from TLS server handshake characteristics. It actively identifies server software and technology stacks by analyzing specific TLS responses.

You can test TLS protocol and cipher support by analyzing the server's handshake response. This verifies the server configuration by identifying which specific TLS protocols and ciphers are accepted.

Yes, you need OpenSSL and JARM installed to analyze TLS certificates using this method. These dependencies are required to actively extract metadata and generate server fingerprints.

You can use TLS certificate analysis for penetration testing and security audits. It evaluates server security posture by extracting certificate authorities, verifying protocol support, and generating JARM fingerprints.
