What is the purpose of TLS session resumption in NGINX?

To increase the security of the TLS handshake by using longer keys

To force clients to re-authenticate on every request for stronger security

To reduce the latency and computational overhead of establishing new TLS sessions for repeat connections

To automatically renew expired certificates without manual intervention

What does the `curl -v https://example.com` command do that is useful for verifying TLS configuration?

It disables certificate verification for testing purposes

It forces curl to use a specific TLS version

It displays verbose output including the TLS handshake and certificate details

It validates the certificate against a local CA bundle and fails if invalid

An NGINX server is behind a load balancer that terminates TLS and forwards plain HTTP to NGINX. The admin wants to enable TLS session resumption, but the load balancer does not support session tickets. Which configuration on NGINX would provide the most effective session resumption in this architecture?

Enable ssl_session_cache shared:SSL:10m; on NGINX.

Enable ssl_session_tickets on; on NGINX.

Configure the load balancer to use a shared session cache or enable session tickets on the load balancer.

Enable ssl_session_cache shared:SSL:10m; and ssl_session_tickets on; on NGINX.

What is the primary purpose of TLS encryption for HTTP traffic?

To translate domain names to IP addresses for secure connections

To provide confidentiality and integrity for data exchanged between client and server

To compress HTTP responses to reduce bandwidth usage

To authenticate the client to the server using a username and password
