             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].
