--------------------------------------------
Attached dsp.tar.gz. A minimal security provider, only containing a single
service - a TrustManager with enforced hostname validation. There is a readme
with some instructions on how to use it. [~ronblechman], based on what you
described around your tests, I believe that you should be able to install your
own TrustManager in a similar way.
Bouncy Castle seem to support a similar setup:
[http://www.bouncycastle.org/wiki/display/JA1/Provider+Installation]
What I like about this approach, is that I can install and manage my security
providers in the same way for all my Java based applications.
> Provide ability to do custom certificate validations (e.g. hostname
> validation, certificate revocation checks)

> Cassandra server should be to be able do additional certificate validations,
> such as hostname validatation and certificate revocation checking against
> CRLs and/or using OCSP.
> One approach couild be to have SSLFactory use SSLContext.getDefault() instead
> of forcing the creation of a new SSLContext using SSLContext.getInstance().
> Using the default SSLContext would allow a user to plug in their own custom
> SSLSocketFactory via the java.security properties file. The custom
> SSLSocketFactory could create a default SSLContext that was customized to do
> any extra validation such as certificate revocation, host name validation,
> etc.
