This script enables the DTLS 1.2 protocol. This protocol is identified as "DTLS 1.2" on Windows. DTLS (Datagram Transport Layer Security) provides secure communication over the UDP protocol. Based on the TLS protocol, DTLS offers equivalent security measures. Common uses include online gaming, DNS lookups, and VPN services. Despite being superseded by the more secure DTLS 1.3, DTLS 1.2 is still approved by authorities like NIST, NSA, and the German Federal Office for Information Security. DTLS...

This script enables the TLS 1.3 protocol. This protocol is identified as "TLS 1.3" on Windows. TLS 1.3 is the latest and most secure version of the TLS protocol. It is supported starting with Windows 11 and Windows Server 2022. On these systems, TLS 1.3 is enabled by default. Authorities like NSA (National Security Agency), Federal Office for Information Security (BSI), The Center for Internet Security, NIST, Microsoft, Mozilla, and Apple recommend using this protocol for its enhanced security. ...

This script provides secure connections for older .NET Framework applications. It enables the automatic adoption of newer, more secure protocols as supported by the operating system. If the operating system supports newer TLS versions, applications will automatically use these without any need for modifications to the application code or .NET Framework settings. For example, this configuration enables .NET Framework 3.5 applications, which do not natively support TLS 1.2, to adopt TLS 1.2. This ...
