Connection privacy and encryption (SSL/HTTPS)
Introduction
SSL/TLS encryption and HTTPS are basic mechanisms for protecting traffic between your device and the casino server, eliminating the interception of passwords, wallet requests and metadata. For anonymous sites, this is a key element of data privacy and integrity.
1. How HTTPS/SSL works
1. Establishing a secure channel (TLS handshake):
2. Symmetric encryption:
3. Purpose - confidentiality and integrity:
2. Checking SSL certificates on the casino site
1. EV vs OV vs DV certificates:
2. Certificate Chain Inspection:
3. SHA-256 fingerprint:
3. Additional mechanisms
1. HSTS (HTTP Strict Transport Security):
2. DNS over HTTPS (DoH) и DNS over TLS (DoT):
3. Public Key Pinning (HPKP) и Certificate Transparency:
4. Practical recommendations
1. Always check the HTTPS lock in the address bar before playing.
2. Use a DoH/DoT-enabled browser and enable DNS encryption mode.
3. Add the site to the HSTS list or manually set the policy at the browser level.
4. Do not click on suspicious links: always take the URL from the official casino channels.
5. Update your browser and OS regularly - new versions contain fixes for TLS vulnerabilities.
Conclusion
The security of an anonymous site is largely determined by the quality of the SSL/TLS implementation and additional security protocols. Check the type of certificate, enable HSTS and DNS encryption, use an updated browser - and your traffic will remain confidential even without identity verification.
SSL/TLS encryption and HTTPS are basic mechanisms for protecting traffic between your device and the casino server, eliminating the interception of passwords, wallet requests and metadata. For anonymous sites, this is a key element of data privacy and integrity.
1. How HTTPS/SSL works
1. Establishing a secure channel (TLS handshake):
- The browser requests an SSL certificate from the server.
- The certificate signature is checked (CA → intermediate → root).
- Pre-master secret exchange and session key generation.
2. Symmetric encryption:
- Further traffic is encrypted with AES-GCM, ChaCha20-Poly1305 algorithms.
- HTTP headers, request body, cookies and WebSocket are protected.
3. Purpose - confidentiality and integrity:
- MITM attacks are not possible without a fake or compromised certificate.
- The text of transactions and wallet data remains invisible to outsiders.
2. Checking SSL certificates on the casino site
1. EV vs OV vs DV certificates:
- EV (Extended Validation): the green line or the company name in the address bar is the maximum guarantee.
- OV (Organization Validation): the company has been verified, but there is no green banner.
- DV (Domain Validation): domain control confirmed; minimum power of attorney.
2. Certificate Chain Inspection:
- Open the → Security → View certificate developer tools.
- Ensure that all intermediate CAs are "trusted" and have not expired.
3. SHA-256 fingerprint:
- Check the fingerprint with the information on the official website of the casino (Telegram channel or FAQ).
3. Additional mechanisms
1. HSTS (HTTP Strict Transport Security):
- The server gives the'Strict-Transport-Security' header, forcing all requests to HTTPS.
- The browser remembers the rule and does not allow switching to HTTP.
2. DNS over HTTPS (DoH) и DNS over TLS (DoT):
- Encrypt DNS requests by hiding real domain names from the provider.
- Configured in a browser (Firefox, Chrome) or at the OS level (macOS, Android).
3. Public Key Pinning (HPKP) и Certificate Transparency:
- HPKP: the browser stores public key pins and rejects certificates that do not match them.
- Certificate Transparency: The public log of all issued certificates allows you to identify fakes.
4. Practical recommendations
1. Always check the HTTPS lock in the address bar before playing.
2. Use a DoH/DoT-enabled browser and enable DNS encryption mode.
3. Add the site to the HSTS list or manually set the policy at the browser level.
4. Do not click on suspicious links: always take the URL from the official casino channels.
5. Update your browser and OS regularly - new versions contain fixes for TLS vulnerabilities.
