Why each option
Transport Layer Security (TLS) is a two-layered protocol consisting of the TLS Record Protocol and the TLS Handshake Protocol.
There is no 'TLS Internet Protocol' as a component; TLS operates at a higher layer than the Internet Protocol.
There is no 'TLS Data Protocol'; data transmission is handled by the Record Protocol.
There is no 'TLS Link Protocol'; TLS operates at the transport layer, above the data link layer.
The TLS protocol suite is structurally divided into two main components: the TLS Record Protocol, which handles the secure transmission of application data, and the TLS Handshake Protocol, which is responsible for negotiating security parameters, authenticating peers, and generating shared session keys.
