Introduction
Welcome to IPWorks SSL, a secure suite of components where SSL/TLS is the only option. IPWorks SSL is a subset of our flagship IPWorks toolkit intended for environments where security must be enforced. IPWorks SSL components are drop-in replacements for their IPWorks counterpart, and will throw an error if plaintext communication is attempted. The enterprise-class components facilitate tasks, such as ensuring security, sending e-mails, transferring files, managing networks, browsing the web, consuming web services, and more.
lib\net40\nsoftware.IPWorksSSL.dll is designed for use in .NET Framework 4.0 and up. This library maintains a familiar API in line with previous versions of the product.

lib\net6.0\nsoftware.IPWorksSSL.dll is designed for use in .NET 6 and up. The .NET 6 library provides cross-platform support while maintaining the same API as the .NET Framework version of the library.
