Authentication and Encryption Combinations

In this table "auth" means client authentication.

  • Entries in pink aren't allowed/don't make any sense
  • All other entries have some use

The numbered boxes are the combinations that are reasonably important:

  1. Anonymous, "public" connection
  2. Encrypted connection with client certificate
  3. Kerberos or DIGEST-MD5
  4. Usually SSL encryption with PLAIN authentication.

Note that all of the SSL encryption possibilities have some use and all could be used to authenticate the server for the client to avoid "man-in-the-middle" attacks.
