26 TopicsLightboard Lessons: What is a TLS Cipher Suite?
When a web client (Internet browser) connects to a secure website, the data is encrypted. But, how does all that happen? And, what type of encryption is used? And, how does the Internet browser know what type of encryption the web server wants to use? This is all determined by what is known as a TLS Cipher Suite. In this video, John outlines the components of a TLS Cipher Suite and explains how it all works. Enjoy!

Good morning, there is a recommendation from German federal security office to still allow CBC-mode ciphers as long as TLS extention "Encrypt-then-MAC" (RFC7366) is in use. But I can't find any information how F5 currently behaves in this regards. Is there any special setting we have to care about or is this already active by default? For your reference, we are running 15.1.8. Can someone share some more details here? And what are your recommendations/experiences with CBC-mode ciphers? Thank you!
