Eligibility for TLS 1.2 Upgrade for Microsoft Translator Text API

Question

I am a subscriber to Microsoft Translator Text API 3 and have been continuously notified about an update to TLS 1.2 or a later version.

Should the subscribed service be upgraded to TLS 1.2, or does the subscription not relate to TLS upgrades?

If an upgrade is necessary, where can TLS 1.2 be downloaded?

Hi David B. Kim

Welcome to Microsoft Q&A Forum, thank you for posting your query here!

All of the Azure AI services endpoints exposed over HTTP enforce the TLS 1.2 protocol. With an enforced security protocol, consumers attempting to call an Azure AI services endpoint should follow these guidelines:

• The client operating system (OS) needs to support TLS 1.2.
• The language (and platform) used to make the HTTP call need to specify TLS 1.2 as part of the request. Depending on the language and platform, specifying TLS is done either implicitly or explicitly.
• For .NET users, consider the Transport Layer Security best practices.

Hope this helps. Do let us know if you any further queries.
