Disabling TLS 1.1 and 1.0 broken the RDP service in AWS instance.

Question

I was working with Cybersec and they are wrong, Disabling TLS 1.1 and 1.0 broken the RDP service in AWS instance.

Is there any way to enable RDP?

I tried remotely changing reg, enabled 1.0 and 1.1 back, My application started working but not the RDP services.

Disabled NLA too.

Its windows 2012 and windows 2016. issues on both the servers.

Hi @Dharanesha E

You will need to re-enable TLS 1.2 as well as 1.0 and 1.1.

In order for RDP to be re-enabled you can follow this guide to reinstate TLS 1.2:

You can also use these instructions to help:

Open Internet Explorer
Click on Tools menu

Andica tls internet explorer setting tools

Select Internet options

Andica tls internet explorer setting internet options

Select the Advanced tab

Andica tls internet explorer setting advanced

Scroll down to Security category and tick the box for Use TLS 1.2

Click OK
Close your browser and restart Internet Explorer

I hope this answers your question.

Thanks.
