OWASP DeepViolet TLS/SSL Scanner Code Project
DeepViolet is a TLS/SSL scanning API written in Java. To keep DeepViolet easy to use, identify bugs, reference implementations have been developed that consume the API. If you want to see what DeepViolet can do, use it from the command line in your scripts or use the graphical tool from the comfort of your desktop. Both tools can be used to scan HTTPS web servers to check server certificate trust chains, revocation status, check certificates for pending expiration, weak signing algorithms and much more.

How is DeepViolet Helpful?
Already great tools exist today for TLS/SSL scanning like, Qualys Labs, Mozilla Observatory, OpenSSL. Why do I care about DeepViolet? A valid question and one I asked myself. Originally, DeepViolet was written as an educational tool. A tool to learn TLS/SSL protocols and some of the issues around recent attack trends better. The goal was not to develop a TLS/SSL scanner and compete with existing powerful tools. However, it turns out there are few choices for easy to use open source Java TLS/SSL scanning APIs. What better way to learn TLS/SSL and provide other scanning projects with a Java friendly API scanning solution - the DeepViolet project was born.

=FAQs= Following are various frequently asked questions.

How can I participate in your project?
Inform a Project Leader how you wish to contribute, your level of intended commitment, and how what you want to do aligns with project goals and milestones. There are many different ways you can contribute to an OWASP Project and communication with the leads is key.

If I am not a programmer can I participate in your project?
Yes, you can certainly participate in the project if you are not a programmer or technical. The project needs different skills and expertise and different times during its development. Currently, we are looking for researchers, writers, graphic designers, and a project administrator.

Additional FAQ's can be found on the projects GitHub FAQ area.
