Title: Recommendations for Secure Use of Transport Layer Security (TLS) and Datagram Transport Layer Security (DTLS) Author: Y. Sheffer, P. Saint-Andre, T. Fossati Status: Best Current Practice Stream: IETF Date: November 2022 Mailbox: yaronf.i...@gmail.com, stpe...@stpeter.im, thomas.foss...@arm.com Pages: 34 Obsoletes: RFC 7525 Updates: RFC 5288, RFC 6066 See Also: BCP 195 I-D Tag: draft-ietf-uta-rfc7525bis-11.txt URL: https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/rfc9325 DOI: 10.17487/RFC9325 Transport Layer Security (TLS) and Datagram Transport Layer Security (DTLS) are used to protect data exchanged over a wide range of application protocols and can also form the basis for secure transport protocols. Over the years, the industry has witnessed several serious attacks on TLS and DTLS, including attacks on the most commonly used cipher suites and their modes of operation. This document provides the latest recommendations for ensuring the security of deployed services that use TLS and DTLS. These recommendations are applicable to the majority of use cases. RFC 7525, an earlier version of the TLS recommendations, was published when the industry was transitioning to TLS 1.2. Years later, this transition is largely complete, and TLS 1.3 is widely available. This document updates the guidance given the new environment and obsoletes RFC 7525. In addition, this document updates RFCs 5288 and 6066 in view of recent attacks. This document is a product of the Using TLS in Applications Working Group of the IETF. BCP: This document specifies an Internet Best Current Practices for the Internet Community, and requests discussion and suggestions for improvements. Distribution of this memo is unlimited.
