AWS quicksuite high security documentation change

Service: quicksuite · 2025-10-25 · Security-related high

File: quicksuite/latest/userguide/infrastructure-and-network-access.md

Summary

Updated TLS requirement from 1.0+ to 1.2+ for API access

Security assessment

Enforcing TLS 1.2+ addresses known vulnerabilities in older TLS versions (e.g., BEAST, POODLE). This change directly improves security posture by requiring modern encryption standards.

-If you use AWS published API calls to access Amazon Quick Suite through the network, clients must support Transport Layer Security (TLS) 1.0 or later. We recommend TLS 1.2 or later. Clients must also support cipher suites with perfect forward secrecy (PFS) such as Ephemeral Diffie-Hellman (DHE) or Elliptic Curve Ephemeral Diffie-Hellman (ECDHE). Most modern systems such as Java 7 and later support these modes.
