As part of our ongoing security review with Rackspace Managed Security, we're disabling support for TLS 1.0 and TLS 1.1. This means, because the security of your data is our priority, we only support TLS 1.2, which provides the strongest protection, and the most robust encryption, for your data. However, some older browser versions may not be compatible with this safer protocol.
To ensure no disruption to service, we recommend you use one of the following browsers:
Internet Explorer 11
Microsoft Edge
Firefox version 27 or higher
Google Chrome 38
Safari 7 desktop
Safari 5 mobile
Android 5.0 Lollipop
Other browsers not listed here may still support the new protocol, however, the above list support TLS 1.2 by default. If you wish to continue using an older browser, you need to make sure it is configured to support TLS 1.2.
What is TLS 1.2?
TLS stands for Transport Layer Security. It's a protocol that protects your data when it is being transferred between two communicating applications. We use to it keep your data safe, while it's being transferred between PeopleHR and your browser.
While older versions offer a good degree of protection, they are quite outdated and could lead to vulnerabilities. TLS 1.2 is the latest version of the protocol and offers the tightest security.
