Discussion

Using older unauthorized versions or incorrectly configuring protocol negotiation makes the gateway vulnerable to known and unknown attacks that exploit vulnerabilities in this protocol. This requirement applies to TLS gateways (also known as SSL gateways). Application protocols such as HTTPS, SFTP, and others use TLS as the underlying security protocol and thus are in scope for this requirement. NIST SP 800-52 provides guidance for client negotiation on either DOD-only or public-facing servers.
