Emacs can create encrypted network connections, using the built-in

@uref{https://www.gnu.org/software/gnutls/, the GnuTLS project page}.
If your Emacs was compiled with GnuTLS support, the function
@code{gnutls-available-p} is defined and returns non-@code{nil}. For
more details, @pxref{Top,, Overview, emacs-gnutls, The Emacs-GnuTLS manual}.
The external support uses the @file{starttls.el} library, which
requires a helper utility such as @command{gnutls-cli} to be installed
on the system. The @code{open-network-stream} function can
transparently handle the details of creating encrypted connections for

Use of any form of TLS/SSL requires support in Emacs. You can either
use the built-in support (in Emacs 24.1 and later), or the
