Server (see my follow-up comment above)
Consider an environment where you want mutual authentication to occur by both 
Client and Server.

> Cassandra server should be to be able do additional certificate validations, 
> such as hostname validatation and certificate revocation checking against 
> CRLs and/or using OCSP. 
> One approach couild be to have SSLFactory use SSLContext.getDefault() instead 
> of forcing the creation of a new SSLContext using SSLContext.getInstance().  
> Using the default SSLContext would allow a user to plug in their own custom 
> SSLSocketFactory via the java.security properties file. The custom 
> SSLSocketFactory could create a default SSLContext  that was customized to do 
> any extra validation such as certificate revocation, host name validation, 
> etc.
