The secure socket layer protocol runs above the TCP/IP and
below higher level protocols such as HTTP or IMAP .SSL uses
TCP/IP on behalf of other higher protocols and in the
process allows and ssl enabled server to authenticate itlsef
to an ssl enabled client the client then atthenticates
itself to the server and both machine establish an encrypted
connection ssl works on port 443 .
