What's this tls report thingy?


Cryptography is arcane and complex. Cryptography is also the basis for the various protocols that secure online commerce, ensure privacy of communication, and provide for integrity of data. Transport Layer Security (TLS), formerly SSL,

is the de facto standard for secure communication on the web, and it, naturally, relies on some rather sophisticated cryptographic techniques. Properly implemented, TLS all but guarantees the security of the communication channel.



It's that properly implemented part that catches folks out. Whether from poor defaults in software, poor understanding of best practices, or a weak grasp on the various trade-offs between security and performance, TLS, as most often deployed on the web, is in a sorry state. We hope to change that.


The tls report delivers the tools, information, and visibility to reveal problems in TLS configurations and offer better alternatives so folks can improve their security posture and make sure it stays improved. Everybody wins.


Right now, the site is in a pre-release state. We are working quickly to complete several new features, like alerting and TLS 1.2. Until we are done, please be patient with outages, lost data, etc.
