The Java SSL/TLS package distributed with the J2SE 1.4.2 runtime is a Java implementation of the SSLv3 and TLSv1 protocols. Java-based web services and other systems deployed by the DoD will depend on this implementation to provide confidentiality, integrity, and authentication. Security and performance assessment of this implementation is critical given the proliferation of web services within DoD channels. This research assessed the performance of the J2SE 1.4.2 SSL and TLS implementations, paying particular attention to identifying performance limitations given a very secure configuration. The performance metrics of this research were CPU utilization, network bandwidth, memory, and maximum number of …
