Summary

GitLab is enhancing its security practices by discontinuing support for the outdated Transport Layer Security (TLS) 1.0 and 1.1 protocols on GitLab.com and its API by December 15, 2018, due to their vulnerabilities and non-compliance with security standards like PCI DSS 3.1. This transition aims to strengthen cryptographic standards and mitigate potential operational disruptions for GitLab customers, as most traffic already uses TLS 1.2. Updates on the deprecation process will be communicated through blog posts, Twitter updates, and security alert emails to users. Users of specific software, such as older versions of Git-Credential-Manager-for-Windows, Git on certain Red Hat releases, JDK versions less than 8, and outdated Visual Studio, are advised to upgrade to ensure compatibility with TLS 1.2.
