Secure programming with the OpenSSL API (IBM developerWorks)

Kenneth Ballard works with OpenSSL on IBM's developerWorks. "Learning how to use the API for OpenSSL -- the best-known open library for secure communication -- can be intimidating, because the documentation is incomplete. Fill in the gaps, and tame the API, with the tips in this article. After setting up a basic connection, see how to use OpenSSL's BIO library to set up both a secured and unsecured connection. And learn a bit about error detection as well."
