Re: OpenSSL

While the timing attack is the attack against the SSL server, it is my reading of the paper that the attacks' success largely depends on ability to tightly control the time it takes to communicate with a service using SSL. Currently, such control is rather difficult to achive on links other than ethernet.

Doesn´t MPLS provide consistent delay and minimal jitter and thus SSL servers connected to MPLS networks are more suspectible to attack? :-) Pete
