TLS 1.3 To Enhance Web Security And Improve Site Loading Speed

Web encryption is about to see a major improvement with the finalization of the TLS 1.3 protocol, which brings enhanced security as well as faster loading pages. Cloudflare, a popular web company that offers DDoS protection and CDN services, among other things, said that it has already implemented TLS 1.3 for all of its customers. However, it’s now waiting on browsers to support it as well so that everyone can use it.

The TLS 1.2 protocol, which was the last version of TLS to be standardized in 2008, has started to show its age. If it’s configured correctly, it can be secure, but not everyone tends to configure it properly, so attacks against websites’ encryption can still succeed. TLS 1.3 aims to be simpler to implement and configure by web developers, while also increasing both security and the performance of encrypted connections.
