BLUE FLAG

UK NCSC updates TLS guidance, adds post-quantum advice

Original title:Using TLS to protect data

What happened

The UK NCSC published guidance on configuring TLS securely and migrating to post-quantum cryptography (PQC). It recommends TLS 1.3 profiles and disabling SSL and TLS 1.0/1.1.

Who is affected

  • Anyone managing their own web or mail servers
  • Operators who can choose TLS policy on a CDN

What to do

Enable TLS 1.3 on your servers or CDN and disable SSL and TLS 1.0/1.1. If you only use TLS 1.2, plan a move to TLS 1.3.
