TLS 1.2 vs TLS 1.3

Developers should learn and use TLS 1 meets developers should learn and use tls 1. Here's our take.

TLS 1.2

Nice Pick

Developers should learn and use TLS 1

Pros

• 2 to implement secure data transmission in applications, especially for web services, APIs, and client-server communications where sensitive information like passwords or financial data is exchanged
• Related to: tls-1.3, https

Cons

• Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case

TLS 1.3

Developers should learn and use TLS 1

Pros

• 3 to implement modern, secure web connections, as it is the current standard for HTTPS, APIs, and other network protocols to protect against eavesdropping and tampering
• Related to: https, ssl

Cons

• Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case

The Verdict

Use TLS 1.2 if: You want 2 to implement secure data transmission in applications, especially for web services, apis, and client-server communications where sensitive information like passwords or financial data is exchanged and can live with specific tradeoffs depend on your use case.

Use TLS 1.3 if: You prioritize 3 to implement modern, secure web connections, as it is the current standard for https, apis, and other network protocols to protect against eavesdropping and tampering over what TLS 1.2 offers.

The Bottom Line

TLS 1.2 wins

Developers should learn and use TLS 1
