# Load CA certificates used for validating the peer's certificate ctx.load_verify_locations( cafile=os.path.relpath(certifi.where()), capath=None, cadata=None);
# Connect to the server through an instance of an SSLSocket class skt = socket.socket(); sec_skt = ctx.wrap_socket(skt);
# Make a connection to the server sec_skt.connect(("example.com", 443)); comp = sec_skt.compression(); print("Compression used:"); print(comp); |
