LabVIEW needs native SSL/TLS support for the TCP primitives. The HTTP functions support it (see \vi.lib\httpClient\ConfigSSL.vi). There are several great LabVIEW native MQTT libraries that could be commercially usable if there was native SSL/TLS support. Not having this functionality for the TCP primitives makes LabVIEW a poor choice for an IoT platform.

just talked to the people on the other side - he uses OpenSSL to generate the certificates and uses the default cipher. while off hand he did remember what that is he said it cant be MD5 or we would be getting flagged.
