Remove TLS 1.0 and 1.1 from use with Azure Cache for Redis

Question

Hi，

I see that Azure is about to discontinue support for this, but my redis is set to default in TLS, what is the default configured version?

Do I need to make changes to my application code if I want to set it to TLS 1.2?

Hi Jack,

Thanks for your patience.

I have got the below reply from the internal team about TLS:

"The default minimum TLS version is 1.2 for new cache instances, at least as of 2020.  So, if you’re using TLS 1.2 in your application already, We don’t believe that you’ll need to make any changes. Setting this value explicitly to TLS 1.2 would also be fine.

 

Our understanding is that this field basically allows you to disable support for lower versions of TLS (i.e. 1.0 and 1.1) if you want to ensure those versions aren’t used for security purposes."
