GnuTLS is a free software implementation of the widely used SSL/TLS protocol. This talk will introduce GnuTLS, and discuss its features such as OpenPGP and SRP support. We'll discuss what we are working on right now, such as improved support for embedded platforms, Windows port, and TLS protocol enhancements. The security environment is one with a lot of software patents, and GnuTLS has run into problems when we implemented the IETF TLS Authorization extension. I'll describe the problem and give a status update.
