Refer to appropriate documentation on how to set SSL version for your application. If your application does not automatically pick up TLS 1.2, you need to explicitly provide that as an override.įor example, for SoapUI tool: set property to TLSv1.2. Please refer to the Java documentation for the details. If you have any further questions you can always reach us via site chat or email us at How do I find which version of TLS I am using?įor example, the Java getProtocol() method in SSLSession will provide the details of TLS version you are using. If you don’t upgrade your TLS version beyond the cutoff date notified to you by developer communication, you will no longer be able to use your projects in any environment. VGS has decided to proactively implement PCI DSS guidelines to provide greater protection to our clients. The standard requires the new TLS requirement to be implemented.

PCI DSS standard version 3.1 was retired in October 2016 and makes all older TLS versions (e.g. Overtime, different versions of TLS have been released TLS 1.2 was released in August 2008, it addresses many vulnerabilities identified in the earlier versions. It is used to authenticate one or both applications, and protect the confidentiality and integrity of information that passes between them. TLS stands for “Transport Layer Security.” It provides privacy and data integrity between two communicating applications. Your VGS integration will stop working if you continue to use any SSL/TLS version less than TLSv1.2 Be sure to upgrade your integrations TLS version to support TLSv1.2. Older TLS versions are vulnerable to security breaches with the wrong cipher suites.


In order for your integration to continue to work, you will need to upgrade to our latest security version TLSv1.2. In accordance with PCI recommendations, VGS has deprecated support for SSL and TLS versions less than TLS version 1.2 (TLSv1.2) Why does this matter?
