Server accepted a deprecated TLS protocol in ShipReady's handshake probe

ShipReady completed a TLS handshake using a deprecated protocol version.

Why it matters

This is bounded technical evidence and should be reviewed in the context of the deployment.

How ShipReady detects it

What it inspects

ShipReady makes passive TLS handshake probes for its supported deprecated protocol versions.

What triggers a finding

A supported deprecated protocol handshake completed.

What the evidence shows

The server accepted that protocol in the observed handshake.

Limits of this check

ShipReady does not send HTTP data, test every network path or client, demonstrate a downgrade attack, or establish compliance.

How to fix it

Disable the observed deprecated protocol

Update the TLS configuration at the origin, load balancer, CDN, or other terminating layer so it no longer accepts the deprecated protocol ShipReady observed. Keep modern protocols enabled and review the change with the team responsible for TLS termination.

How to verify the change

Repeat a protocol-specific handshake check

After deployment, use a TLS-capability test from an appropriate network path to confirm the observed deprecated protocol handshake is rejected while supported clients can still connect.

Expected: The previously accepted deprecated protocol no longer completes a handshake in the verification probe.
