Superficially it seems we got lucky, because we stayed behind on 1.0.0 branch of OPENSSL. But the decision was based on extensive discussion in our admin community and sound principals. Since all known vulnerability fixes are back ported to non deprecated branches we decided to stay on 1.0.0 OpenSSL branch after 0.9 branch was made obsolete. In addition, our monthly vulnerability scans and monthly security audit keeps us on top of known vulnerabilities.
