Network Security Services Alternatives

    Network Security Services is described as '(NSS) comprises a set of libraries designed to support cross-platform development of security-enabled client and server applications with an option support for hardware SSL acceleration on the server side and hardware smart cards on the client side' and is an app in the Security & Privacy category. There are five alternatives to Network Security Services for a variety of platforms, including Windows, Linux, Mac, Android and iPhone. The best alternative is OpenSSL, which is both free and Open Source. Other great apps like Network Security Services are GnuTLS (Free, Open Source), Themis (Free, Open Source), mbed TLS (Free) and SharkSSL (Free Personal).
