SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) was developed by Netscape in 1994 to create an encrypted data path between a client and server that could be used on any platform or operating system. TLS (Transport Layer Security) is a newer version of SSL and was introduced in 1999, but the question specifically asks for the protocol developed by Netscape in 1994. PEAP (Protected Extensible Authentication Protocol) and EAP (Extensible Authentication Protocol) are protocols used for authentication and not for creating an encrypted data path between a client and server.
