- - ### Field Detail

    - #### CIPHER_SUITE_KEY

          static final String CIPHER_SUITE_KEY

      The Request attribute key for the cipher suite.
      See Also:
        Constant Field Values

    - #### KEY_SIZE_KEY

          static final String KEY_SIZE_KEY

      The Request attribute key for the key size.
      See Also:
        Constant Field Values

    - #### CERTIFICATE_KEY

          static final String CERTIFICATE_KEY

      The Request attribute key for the client certificate chain.
      See Also:
        Constant Field Values

    - #### SESSION_ID_KEY

          static final String SESSION_ID_KEY

      The Request attribute key for the session id. This one is a Tomcat extension to the Servlet spec.

        Constant Field Values

    - #### PROTOCOL_VERSION_KEY

          static final String PROTOCOL_VERSION_KEY

      The request attribute key under which the String indicating the protocol that created the SSL socket is recorded - e.g. TLSv1 or TLSv1.2 etc.
      See Also:
        Constant Field Values

  - ### Method Detail

    - #### getCipherSuite

          String getCipherSuite()
                                throws IOException

      The cipher suite being used on this connection.
      Returns:
        The name of the cipher suite as returned by the SSL/TLS implementation
      Throws:
        `IOException` - If an error occurs trying to obtain the cipher suite

    - #### getPeerCertificateChain

          X509Certificate[] getPeerCertificateChain()
                                                    throws IOException

      The client certificate chain (if any).
      Returns:
        The certificate chain presented by the client with the peer's certificate first, followed by those of any certificate authorities
      Throws:
        `IOException` - If an error occurs trying to obtain the certificate chain

    - #### getKeySize

          Integer getKeySize()
                             throws IOException

      Get the keysize. What we're supposed to put here is ill-defined by the Servlet spec (S 4.7 again). There are at least 4 potential values that might go here: (a) The size of the encryption key (b) The size of the MAC key (c) The size of the key-exchange key (d) The size of the signature key used by the server Unfortunately, all of these values are nonsensical.
      Returns:
        The effective key size for the current cipher suite
      Throws:
        `IOException` - If an error occurs trying to obtain the key size

    - #### getSessionId

          String getSessionId()
                              throws IOException

      The current session Id.
      Returns:
        The current SSL/TLS session ID
      Throws:
        `IOException` - If an error occurs trying to obtain the session ID

    - #### getProtocol

          String getProtocol()
                             throws IOException

      Returns:
        the protocol String indicating how the SSL socket was created e.g. TLSv1 or TLSv1.2 etc.
      Throws:
        `IOException` - If an error occurs trying to obtain the protocol information from the socket
