+\subsection{Architectural overview }

 A cipher suite is a standardised collection of key exchange algorithms, ciphers,
 Message authentication code (MAC) that provides authenticated encryption schemes. 
 It consists of the following components:

+\item{Key exchange protocol:}
+``An (interactive) key exchange protocol is a method whereby parties who do not 
 share any secret information can generate a shared, secret key by communicating 
 over a public channel. The main property guaranteed here is that an 
 eavesdropping adversary who sees all the messages sent over the communication 
-line does not learn anything about the resulting secret key." {1} 
+line does not learn anything about the resulting secret key.'' {1} 
 Katz, Lindell Introduction to Modern cryptography
 Example: DH ECDH DHE ECDHE RSA
 
-\subsection{Authentication}
+\item{Authentication:}
 The client authenticates the server by its certificate. Optionally the server 
 may authenticate the client certificate.
 Example: RSA ECDSA DSA
 
-\subsection{Cipher}
+\item{Cipher:}
 The cipher is used to encrypt the message stream. It also contains the key size
 and mode used by the suite.
 
 Example: AES128 AES128\_GCM Camellia128 
 
 
-\subsection{Message authentication code (MAC)}
+\item{Message authentication code (MAC):}
 A MAC ensures that the message has not been tampered with (integrity).
 Examples: SHA256 SHA384 SHA

-\subsection{Authenticated encryption scheme}
+\item{Authenticated encryption scheme:}
 An encryption scheme which provides confidentiality, integrity and authenticity.

 \subsection{Forward Secrecy}
 Forward Secrecy or Perfect Forward Secrecy is a property of a cipher suite 
 that ensures confidentiality even if the server key has been compromised.
