TLS 1.3
TLS 1.3 is the latest version of the Transport Layer Security protocol, which provides secure communication over a computer network by encrypting data between clients and servers. It enhances security and performance by removing outdated cryptographic algorithms, reducing handshake latency, and improving privacy features compared to previous versions.
Developers should learn and implement TLS 1.3 when building web applications, APIs, or any networked service requiring secure data transmission, as it offers stronger encryption, faster connection establishment, and better protection against attacks like downgrade and eavesdropping. It is essential for compliance with modern security standards and improving user experience in high-traffic environments.
