Addressing Visibility Challenges with TLS 1.3 within the Enterprise
The National Cybersecurity Center of Excellence (NCCoE) invites you to share your feedback on preliminary draft Special Publication 1800-37, Addressing Visibility Challenges with TLS 1.3 within the Enterprise. The public comment period is open now until April 1, 2024.
The Addressing Visibility Challenges with TLS 1.3 within the Enterprise project aims to facilitate the adoption of the Internet Engineering Task Force’s TLS 1.3 transport layer security protocol (TLS) by demonstrating technologies and architectures that can be deployed alongside TLS 1.3 to support continuous security monitoring and analysis of network traffic in enterprise environments.
Many enterprises rely on network monitoring and inspection tools to implement critical cybersecurity, operational, and regulatory controls such as intrusion detection, troubleshooting, and fraud monitoring. Some of these organizations have found it challenging to support TLS 1.3 because some techniques that enterprises had used with TLS 1.2 to gain visibility into traffic protected by TLS, no longer worked with TLS 1.3.
NIST is working with private sector collaborators to demonstrate how necessary visibility within the enterprise can be achieved while implementing TLS 1.3. Our demonstrated approaches provide visibility into traffic within internal enterprise networks while protecting data through encryption in-transit, key management controls, and access control policies.
