Secure communication is essential when deploying devices in modern networks. Transport Layer Security (TLS) is widely used to protect data in transit, but selecting an appropriate configuration can be challenging—especially in KRITIS-communication. Devices in these settings often operate under strict constraints such as limited bandwidth, higher latency, or limited computational resources.
At the same time, systems must maintain strong security guarantees and often comply with regulatory or organizational requirements. Balancing these constraints with secure TLS settings is not always straightforward.
The TLS Configuration Assistant, developed as part of the MissionXconnect research project, helps practitioners navigate these challenges. By answering a short questionnaire about your network conditions, device capabilities, and security requirements, you can quickly explore TLS configurations that fit your environment.
Provide the information that best reflects your setup, and the tool will suggest suitable TLS configuration options tailored to your constraints.
