For applications using OpenSSL, this means faster HTTPS connection establishment times due to reduced client-server communication, and faster speeds when clients immediately start sending encrypted data to the server without first communicating with it ( 0-RTT, or early data).

TLS 1.3 also means that OpenSSL will no longer support some older or insecure cryptographic algorithms.

But there are also some additions. OpenSSL 1.1.1 now supports 11 new cryptographic algorithms: SHA3, SHA512/224, SHA512/256, EdDSA (including Ed25519 and Ed448), X448, Multi-Prime RSA, SM2, SM3, SM4, SipHash, and ARIA.

In addition, the OpenSSL random number generator has been lithuania whatsapp data rewritten. This is the most important component of the library. All cryptographic algorithms use random numbers. More methods of generating random numbers are now used. The OpenSSL team hopes that this will significantly improve security.

Last but not least, the new OpenSSL prevents side-channel attacks, which are one of the main methods used by security researchers to extract data from OpenSSL-encrypted communications.

The previous branch of OpenSSL, version 1.0.2, will receive fixes until the end of 2018, and enhancements until the end of 2019. For OpenSSL 1.1.0, which was in short-term support, enhancements will be released until September 11, 2019, for one year after OpenSSL 1.1.1 was released.
