- Recommend how this lab could be modified or what it could be replaced with to better meet your needs.
Lab:
7.4.2 Using OpenSSL to Create a Public/Private Key Pair
In this lab, you will use OpenSSL to create a public/private key pair. OpenSSL is used for secure communication over the network. It works on the exchange of public keys and authentication by a private key.
Completion of 7.4.2 demonstrated the use of openSSL to make a private key and public key pair. Several instructions in the terminal program are executed as a result of this. Once the instructions are executed, OpenSSL will encrypt the system traffic and exchange private and public keys.
