SSL Week Means Less Weak SSL
CloudFlare has announced the start of SSL Week, during which they plan to make several announcements aimed at improving encryption on the internet. They aim for encryption to be easy and inexpensive to use, fast without affecting performance, and up-to-date with the latest vulnerabilities. One initiative is making it easy and free to ensure secure connections from CloudFlare back to the origin server. Additionally, they will add support for a new cipher while deprecating an older one that has become compromised. Further announcements are expected throughout SSL Week.
