In our continual efforts to uphold the highest security standards and protect you from malicious actors, AngelTrack will cease to accept TLS v1.0/v1.1 connections on the following dates:
Transport Layer Security (TLS) is a form of encryption used in internet communications. It’s considered both a standard for security and widely used across the internet to protect both businesses and individuals alike from bad actors who might otherwise do harm.
TLS 1.0 was released in 1999, and TLS 1.1 was released in 2006. Both of these are now considered outdated versions. To put this in perspective, babies born in 1999 are starting to graduate from college this year: it’s time to switch to an updated version of TLS.
By supporting outdated protocols like TLS 1.0 or 1.1, customers are vulnerable to attacks. We take security seriously at AngelTrack, and we want to make sure our customers are safe.
Only very old operating systems and mobile devices are affected; for a complete list, visit this page: https://support.globalsign.com/ssl/general-ssl/tls-protocol-compatibility
While you most likely support TLS 1.2 already, it’s always a good idea to check which version is supported by your workstations and mobile devices. To run a test, visit this page: https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/viewMyClient.html
