If you're wondering what the differences are SSL and TLS are basically the same thing, the latter is simply a newer, more secure version of the former.įundamentally, TLS provides you with the ability to encrypt connections between SQL Server and calling client applications. Previously, Microsoft only supported SSL encryption in SQL Server, however given the spate of reported vulnerabilities against SSL, Microsoft now recommends that you move to TLS 1.2. That announcement has since been updated to include support for SQL Server 20. I n January 2016, Microsoft announced support for TLS 1.2 encryption for SQL Server 2008, 2008 R2, 20. If you weren't aware, we've been able to secure communication channels since SQL Server 2000 and as the cryptographic protocols have become more and more secure over time, it's good to see that Microsoft has continued to ensure that the product hasn't been left behind. With that, let's see how we can secure encryptions to SQL Server.
If you read the terms of the regulation, there is a need to account for the risks presented by "accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorised disclosure of, or access to personal data transmitted, stored or otherwise processed" ( GDPR Article 32(2), "Security of Processing" ). With the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) on the horizon, encrypting connections is one of the most common discussion points that comes up during customer workshops. Following one of my earlier blog posts about Always Encrypted, I thought I'd stick with the security theme for my latest one.
