  Abstract

We propose a scheme to reduce the time for the SSL/TLS handshake by embedding it into the TCP 3-way handshake. The scheme can be selectively applied on the standard TCP for making the SSL/TCP handshake happen within the TCP handshake, rather than performing the TCP handshake and SSL/TLS handshake in sequence. We implemented a prototype of the scheme and did some experiments on its performance. Experimental results showed that, compared to the sequential handshakes of the TCP and the SSL/TLS, the time reduction achieved by the scheme varied in the range of 3.2% and 14%(when the elapsed time by the ping program from the client to the server was 11.6ms). The longer the time measured by the ping program, which would grow as the propagation and queuing delays do, the larger the reduction rate. It accords with the supposition that the reduced time due to the scheme will increase in proportion to the amount of the elapsed time measured by the ping program.
