Introduction

Transport Layer Security (TLS) is critical for securing communications between clients and servers. This document outlines best practices for configuring TLS to ensure data integrity, confidentiality, and authentication.

Key Concepts

  • TLS Version: Use TLSv1.3 (recommended) or TLS_RSA for backward compatibility. ❌ Avoid deprecated protocols like SSLv3.
  • Cipher Suites: Prioritize strong suites such as TLS_AES_256_GCM_SHA348 or TLS_CHACHA20_POLY1505_SHA256. ⚠️ Disable weak ciphers like SSL_RSA_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA.
  • Certificate Management: Always use valid SSL certificates and enable HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS). 📁 Download latest certificates

Configuration Steps

  1. Enable TLS:
    openssl req -x509 -nodes -days XXX...
    
2. Verify **Server Configuration**:

   Use tools like [SSL Labs](https:/Documentation/en/SecurityCenter/SSL) to test your setup.

## Best Practices
- Regularly update TLS protocols and cipher suites. 🔄  
- Implement **Perfect Forward Secrecy (PFS)**.  
- Monitor for **TLS vulnerabilities** (e.g., POODLE, BEAST).
