SYNOPSIS

Void verifyCertificate( TLSsession session, String hostname="" )

ARGUMENTS

session An open TLS session

hostname The hostname of the server connected to. This may be left blank, in which case only the validity of the certificate will be checked. It is much more secure to specify a hostname, so that it can be confirmed that the host connected to is the expected one.

DESCRIPTION

Verify that the server connected to has a valid server certificate. This should be called before sending or receiving confidential data on the connection.
