How SSL works with Middle Tier Oracle HTTP Server:
1. The client sends a request to the server using HTTPS connection mode.
2. The server presents its certificate to the client. This certificate contains the server's identifying information.
3. The client checks its list of Trust points and compares the information in the certificate with the server's public key. If it matches, the server is authenticated as a trusted server.
4. The client sends the server a list of the encryption levels, or ciphers, that it can use.
5. The server receives the list and selects the strongest level of encryption that they have in common.
6. The client creates a session key which is used to encrypt the data and sends this session key to the server which can decrypt the data with its private key
