Which of the following best describes the relationship between SSL and TLS
TLS is a proprietary protocol, while SSL is an open-community protocol
SSL is more extensible and backward compatible with TLS
TLS is the open-community version of SSL
SSL can be modified by developers to expand the protocol's capabilities
Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) is a proprietary protocol whereas Transport Layer Security (TLS) was developed by a standards body, making it an open-community protocol. TLS is a proposed Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) standard, first defined in 1999 and updated in RFC 5246 (August 2008) and RFC 6176 (March 2011). It is based on the earlier SSL specifications (1994, 1995, 1996) developed by Netscape Communications for adding the HTTPS protocol to their Navigator web browser. EDIT - A better answer would be to say that TLS is a new and improved version of SSL. All versions of SSL have known vulnerabilities and none of them should be used.
