-----------------------------------
Summary: Audit SSLContextFactory and SSLSocketFactory usage
throughout application
Key: NIFI-1478
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-1478
Project: Apache NiFi
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Core Framework
Affects Versions: 0.5.0
Reporter: Andy LoPresto
Assignee: Andy LoPresto
Priority: Critical
The internal use of {{SSLSocketFactory}} and {{SSLContextFactory}} is
inconsistent, as the application has grown around the concept of secure
communications. NiFi can act as both a server and as a client for
communications, and the default configuration should make it easy for new users
to quickly secure the application for incoming and outgoing connections.
In addition, {{SSLSocketFactory}} has some inconsistencies and idiosyncrasies
which may confuse users [1].
