Turn on TLS 1.2 - ssl

I just received an email from Authorize.net informing that they deactivate connections to their server using TLS1.0 and TLS1.1.
Question are Godaddy SSL and Web Host set for TLS1.2 connections and is there anything need to change for configure TLS1.2 for my site?
How to check which TLS use in my website?

How to check which TLS use in my website?
Use Qualys SSL Labs vulnerability tester to check which TLS version you are using: https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/
You may certainly see that you support several versions (this is the most common case).

You have nothing to do, web hosting services by GoDaddy are already supporting TLS 1.2 connections (and TLS 1.0 and TLS 1.1 - they do not support SSL v3 nor SSL v2 anymore, and it's a good thing).

WebSphere Multiple SSL Version Support

I'm running a web application that communicates with various APIs. One API requires TLSv1.2 while another will not support something that current (TLSv1 or TLSv1.1).
Does Websphere support multiple SSL versions?
I've found documentation about successfully changing the version of SSL, however I really need to be able to run TLSv1.1 and 1.2 together (if that's even possible) or run one version for one application while another for another application.
According to documentation for setting up SSL in WebSphere, to support the use of TLS 1.0, 1.1 and 1.2, I need to enable SSL_TLSv2:
Question: WAS is act SSL client, What does remote SSL server support
only TLSv1.0 or TLSv1.1 and Similar WAS is act SSL Server, What does
Remote SSL client does support only TLSv1.0 or TLSv1.1 or TLSv1.2.
What to do in order to work such environments?
Answer: There is an alternative option, SSL_TLSv2, which will enable
support for TLSv1.0, TLSv1.1, and TLSv1.2 in the environment. Please
use this setting SSL_TLSv2 in environments where support for multiple
TLS protocols is required, or if you are not sure whether your WAS
environment interacts with other servers or clients using non-TLSv1.2
protocols then, you can configure WAS to use SSL_TLSv2 using same
steps as given in the above.
Note:
Without poddle fix and configured WAS to use SSL_TLSv2
SSL_TLSv2 ==> Enables all SSL v3.0 and TLS v1.0, v1.1 and v1.2
protocols. Accepts SSLv3 or TLSv1 hello encapsulated in an SSLv2
format hello.
If you installed Poddle fix (will disable SSLv3 ) and configured WAS
to use SSL_TLSv2
SSL_TLSv2 ==> Enables these three TLS v1.0, v1.1 and v1.2 protocols.
So, changing the QoS settings to SSL_TLSv2 allows SSL Handshakes to multiple TLS versions when required.

What are the implications of checking one or both useSSL and useTLS boxes for LDAP config?

Adobe documentation for AEM 6 says
"Check the Use SSL or Use TLS checkboxes when configuring the LDAP
Identity Provider."
What protocol will be used if I check both boxes? Does TLS override the SSL config option? It seems to work with one or both checked, but I can't verify which protocol was used. Is checking just TLS sufficient to ensure I have a connection using the TLS protocol?
There are 2 ways to secure LDAP connections :
One is to connect to the LDAPS port (636 by default) using SSL (or
the later TLS versions). This is the legacy and non-standard way to
do it, also generally known as "Use SSL".
One is to connect to the LDAP port (389), and then enable TLS using
the LDAP StartTLS extended operation (which negotiates SSLv3 or TLS
protocols). It is generally known as "Use TLS".
The underlying version of the protocol used (SSLv3, TLSv1.0, TLSv1.1...) depends on the settings of the LDAP server or the LDAP client library.
I hope this helps.

OpenShift SSL cipher preferences configuration

I have a question regarding the configuration of SSL preferences on OpenShift.
As far I know, the SSL termination in OpenShift is executed on the HAproxy, which serves as reverse proxy to route to user gears.
Is there a possibility, to configure the SSL preferences, to use user specific order of prefered ciphers, and also to turn off some versions of SSL/TLS as it is possible for instance in tomcat, or is the SSL cipher and versions configuration platform specific and can't be changed by user?

TLS 1.2 implementation in Play Framework 2.3.x with Nginx

https://www.playframework.com/documentation/2.3.1/ConfiguringHttps describes, in detail, how to implement SSL in Play Framework 2.3.x
However, I am wondering how to implement TLS 1.2 in Play Framework, do I also need something like Nginx?
I am fairly new to this subject. https://luxsci.com/blog/ssl-versus-tls-whats-the-difference.html shows us that SSL is older than TLS. I have heard that SSL is not secure any more, that's why I ask this question.
Nginx support TLS 1.2 without problems (check parameter "ssl_protocols"). Forget about SSL v2 and SSL v3, it is not secure, but most browsers support TLS v1.2, TLSv1.1 and TLS v1.
You can use Nginx as proxy, and configure HTTPS on nginx. Nginx has many usefull options, it can fast serving static files and proxying all other request to "play" application (to TCP port or to socket).
In your link there is information that you can run Play with HTTPS, so there is no need to use nginx, but I agreee with this part:
(..) using a reverse proxy in front of Play will give better control
and security of HTTPS.

SSL to TLS switch - httpd RHEL 5.11

I am planning to disable SSL protocol in my site and moving to the TLS secure protocol. I will be making the configuration change in httpd. Does it require any changes to the server and client certificates or credentials which are already in place?
No it doesn't. Only the supportedProtocols needs to change.
