TLS (Transport Layer Security)
Definition
TLS (Transport Layer Security) is the cryptographic protocol that secures Internet communications, succeeding SSL. It ensures confidentiality (encryption), integrity and server authentication (via its certificate). TLS 1.3, the current version, mandates modern cipher suites and a single round-trip handshake. The padlock in the browser signals that a TLS connection is active. Certyneo enforces TLS 1.3 minimum across all endpoints.
