This post is authored by Arden White, Senior Program Manager, Windows Servicing and Delivery.<\/em><\/p>\n

As a follow-up to our announcement regarding TLS 1.2 support at Microsoft<\/a> we are announcing that support for TLS1.1\/TLS 1.2 on Windows Server 2008 is now available for download as of July 18th, 2017. We\u2019re offering this support in recognition that our customers have a strong demand for support for these newer protocols in their environment and in recognition of the extended lifetime of Windows Server 2008 under the Windows Server Premium Assurance offering.<\/p>\n

This update for Windows Server 2008 will include support for both TLS 1.1 and TLS 1.2. For application compatibility purposes, these protocols will be disabled by default in a manner similar to the TLS 1.1\/TLS 1.2 support that was disabled by default in Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2. After downloading and installing the update these protocols can be enabled by setting the registry keys described in KB4019276<\/a>.<\/p>\n

This update is being made available on the following timeline:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
