windows server 2012 r2 standard ready to enable tls1.2

Question

hi, Sir and Madam,

after company vulnerability scanning, a windows server 2012 r2 standard is required to enable tls1.2 and disable others.
I would like to know how to know the windows server 2012 r2 standard can enable tls1.2 on it ? (remark ssl2 is enabled now on it)
or need to install some windows update patch first?

thank you very much

HI @delaynomore ,

Windows Server 2012 R2 should have TLS 1.2 enabled by default, you can check more over here:

Protocols in TLS/SSL (Schannel SSP)
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/secauthn/protocols-in-tls-ssl--schannel-ssp-

If the TLS 1.2 is for some reason not enabled, you can refer to the official Microsoft documentation below on how to enable TLS 1.2:

TLS 1.2
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/security/tls/tls-registry-settings#tls-12
