TLS 1.2 Mandate by CCAvenue

Dear Customers,

Please find an important notification regarding TLE 1.2 protocol mandate.

WHAT IS THE TLS MANDATE?

The Payment Card Industry (“PCI”) council, as well as Visa and MasterCard, have issued a mandate that all Merchants and Service Providers configure their systems to use the TLS 1.2 standard for secure connections between systems. This means systems must disable SSL and earlier versions of TLS as they will no longer be compliant and will not be allowed to connect.

 

REFERENCES:
PCI Council:
https://www. pcisecuritystandards.org/documents/Migrating_from_SSL_Early_TLS_Information%20Supplement_v1.pdf

In view of this, as of January 16, 2017 CCAvenue will no longer support TLS 1.0 and TLS 1.1 over HTTPS on the www.ccavenue.com  and secure.ccavenue.com domain.

WHO IS IMPACTED?
All CCAvenue customers accessing any CCAvenue solution must upgrade /configure systems for use of TLS 1.2. This is a security requirement regardless if the data being accessed is PCI related or not. As this is an industry-wide initiative, your IT organizations should already be determining what actions are required to comply, including applications and systems beyond those connecting to CCAvenue.
