SSL is one (rather old) specification of Transport Layer Security (TLS).
These days, you shouldn't be using any version of the SSL protocol; they
all have unfixable security holes.

To be moderately safe, you should implement TLS v1.2 with fallback
allowed to TLS v1.0 but not lower. Even then, certificates should use at
least SHA256, preferably SHA512; SHA1 is no longer considered secure. I
don't recall offhand which ciphers are considered secure, but there
aren't very many of them.
