Lightboard Lessons: What Are AEAD Ciphers?

The recent TLS 1.3 protocol mandates that Authenticated Encryption with Associated Data (AEAD) Ciphers be used for bulk encryption. As web servers and browsers transition to using these ciphers, it's important to know what they are and how they work. In this video, John discusses the details of AEAD Ciphers and which ones you can use to implement on your web server.
