  Abstract

A security socket layer encrypts packets over a network and makes the content of the traffic invisible, which may cause security threats that can be exploited by attackers. A hardware based approach to decrypt the traffic by using proxy servers or visualization devices is the most general counter measure. However, there is a rack of research on a software based approach where a security program running on a host decrypts the encrypted traffic. This paper propose an efficient software based approach that can monitor the connection of the secure socket layer using API hoocking and decrypt the encrypted traffic in a client side, therefore, the proposed method can reinforce the management function of the encrypted traffic in the existing security program.
