New Plugin for TLS Version 1.1 Protocol (PCI)

Summary

A new plugin is being released by the end of next week, regarding TLS Version 1.1 and PCI.

Change

After conversations with the PCI Council, we have decided to release a new, specific plugin for TLS Version 1.1 regarding PCI, which will have a severity level of Medium. Nessus Plugin 121010 (TLS Version 1.1 Protocol Detection) will not see its current severity level (info) changed.

Impact

Customers should expect the new TLS 1.1 PCI plugin to fire only on PCI scans, and to report with a severity level of Medium if the protocol is detected.

Target Release Date

7 August 2020
