<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks for the feedback. The SSLLabs grading had my cipher suites at a grade level of an ‘A.’ I understand other areas play a part in the grading, but the TLS is one that stuck out the most. My guess is I won’t score an A until I address
that one in addition to any other areas noted as lower than an A with their scoring.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">So have you updated your IdP to use TLS 1.2 and above? Did you see any issue with doing so for your IdP for your applications using your IdP for SSO?
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Which webserver are you running? I’m running Jetty so if you have any insight on how you modified it that would be helpful as well. I started looking around and some say to modify jetty-ssl.xml to ‘ExcludeProtocols’ for 1.0 and 1.1 while
another site said to update jetty-https.xml.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">IMO Yes, you really should regard those older protocols as a security risk and update to support TLS 1.2 or 1.3. There are some niche needs for the older protocols to support legacy devices that cannot support newer secure TLS, but you
can support legacy clients such as IE 11 and Android 5 using TLS 1.2.<o:p></o:p></p>

staying at a score of a ‘B’ for this and moving on? Any concerns you have with moving an IdP from TLS 1.0/1.1 to TLS 1.2? <o:p></o:p></p>
