RFC 8446 Proposed Standard

The Transport Layer Security (TLS) Protocol Version 1.3

E. Rescorla · 2018-08

Abstract

This document specifies version 1.3 of the Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocol. TLS allows client/server applications to communicate over the Internet in a way that is designed to prevent eavesdropping, tampering, and message forgery. This document updates RFCs 5705 and 6066, and obsoletes RFCs 5077, 5246, and 6961.

Why This RFC Matters

RFC 8446 represents the most significant redesign of TLS in the protocol's history, reducing the full handshake to one round trip (and zero round trips for session resumption with 0-RTT), eliminating all cipher suites without forward secrecy, removing RSA key exchange, retiring RC4/3DES/SHA-1, and encrypting the server certificate to prevent passive observer enumeration of server identities. TLS 1.3 adoption accelerated rapidly after publication and is now the preferred version for virtually all new HTTPS deployments; browsers and CDNs have deprecated TLS 1.0/1.1 in compliance with CA/B Forum and IETF recommendations, making TLS 1.2 and 1.3 the only practically deployed versions.
