Frequently Asked Questions
Specifically, why are we disabling TLS 1.1?
Answer: The IETF has formally deprecated TLS 1.1 as per rfc8996 [ https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc8996 ]. We anticipate that PCI DSS will soon require TLS 1.1 to be disabled.
Will this affect API calls?
Answer: Yes, all API calls will be impacted and API clients will need to ensure they support TLS 1.2 and above in order to succeed.
What will be the user experience?
Answer: Usually, there will be no impact if your browser can support TLS 1.2 or above. If your browser does not support TLS 1.2 or above, it will result in failure..
Is there any action required for the customers?
Answer: In general, for browser access, no action is required, given your browser of choice supports TLS 1.2 or above. API calls should be tested to ensure they support TLS 1.2.
