modssl versus other ssl servers

Hi,

Does anyone know how many modssl installations there are versus
other SSL servers? I'd like to know what percentage of SSL sites
use modssl.

Thanks, Chris

For just under $2000, Security space will give you a report on it.

Tech&repid=10903

(Which explains why the links on the modssl site to statistics are out of
date).

Nearly everything we believe is second hand. For example, less than 500
people have seen the Earth from space, yet the majority of people believe it
is round (OK pedants, an oblate sphere).

RE: modssl versus other ssl servers

Oops, my mistake. The page
http://www.securityspace.com/s_survey/payrepdetail.html?ym=2 00212&cat=Apache
Tech&repid=10903 says 1.4 million mod_ssl sites out of 5.3 million Apache
sites.

I'd reckon that mod_ssl is the number one secure server on the 'net.

Re: modssl versus other ssl servers

Any answer you get will probably be a best guess. The closest stat on
modssl use might relate somewhat to the number of list memebers here,
though, even that number will not be fully definative as some folks use
more then one product, some onlyread the list and not really have modssl
up and running, etc...

Thanks,

Ron DuFresne

Re: modssl versus other ssl servers

I was looking for some of the automated test mechanisms like Netcraft.
I found a recently updated survey at
http://www.securityspace.com/s_survey/data/.
The survey provides Web and SSL site stats independently but the SSL server
break down does not include modssl. Instead there is an apache module
section. It does make sense but takes more work to understand the results.
Apache has 50.88 percent of the ssl market in December 2002. Apparently
26.49 percent of the apache servers that answered include modssl in
the response (1414225 servers). However this is not listed under
the secure servers suvey.Perhaps some of these have modssl installed
but SSL not enabled. This is exactly the kind of survey I was looking
for. Thanks for all the responses.
