-------------------------------------------

I found this interesting conversation: 
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13135230/difference-between-ssl-and-tls-and-their-usage-in-java

>From that I conclude that 'SSL' in this context means the oldest version and 
>anything newer supported by the JVM. And unless a specific version has been 
>explicitly set by using setEnabledProtocols somewhere, it will still use the 
>JVM's default.

And it seems the default is whatever is the highest version supported by both 
the server and client program.

> Recently, a security weakness was found in SSLv3, POODLE: SSLv3 vulnerability 
> (CVE-2014-3566)
> Derby supports ssl between the client and network server.
> We should investigate this and decide if we need to change our product, e.g. 
> to eliminate support for SSL in favor of its successor TLS.
