(NIST: Gaithersburg, MD) -- Industries such as finance and healthcare need to monitor incoming internet data for evidence of malware and insider cyberattacks. The latest internet security protocol, known as TLS 1.3, makes it more challenging to comply with these requirements while maintaining web traffic security.

A new practice guide describes the advantages of TLS 1.3 with solutions to manage keys and shows how affected industries can develop a solution to meet requirements using the new protocol.

The Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocol allows us to send data over the internet securely, protecting passwords and credit card numbers when we provide them to a site. A new practice guide will help industries perform required monitoring of incoming data for malware while using TLS 1.3, the protocol’s latest version. Credit: N. Hanacek/NIST
