Enable TLS 1.2
Last updated
The TLS
command sets the security protocol for communication over HTTPS (HyperText Transfer Protocol Secure). It specifically configures the .NET Framework's ServicePointManager
to use TLS 1.2 as the security protocol when establishing secure connections.
Older operating systems, such as Windows Server 2012, may not enable TLS 1.2 by default. Instead, they may default to earlier versions of TLS, which may have known security vulnerabilities or be less secure. By using the TLS
command, you ensure that the communication between your system and remote servers uses the most up-to-date and secure protocol, regardless of the system's default settings.

command]
