Connect Safely via Cyphers Proxy

[cyphers] Endpoint Tools allow you to connect safely to a server even though it will allow for insecure connections. Your connection will be secure regardless of the server's security posture.

These proxies don't modify the remote server — they enforce TLS best practices on your side of the connection. Traffic is routed through the Cyphers proxy network which negotiates the strongest available cipher suite and rejects connections that fall below your configured threshold.

CRITICAL BEAST (CVE-2011-3389) CVE-2011-3389
-25 pts
Server vulnerable to BEAST attack
Observed TLS 1.0 enabled with CBC cipher TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA Expected TLS 1.0 disabled or CBC ciphers removed Remediation Disable TLS 1.0 or remove CBC ciphers. Prefer TLS 1.2+ with GCM or ChaCha20.
Evidence

Observed 3DES cipher supported: TLS_RSA_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA Expected No 3DES cipher suites Remediation Remove 3DES cipher suites. Use AES-GCM or ChaCha20-Poly1305 instead.
Evidence
  • 3DES cipher: TLS_RSA_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA

Findings

1 Minor
4 Info
Protocol
TLS 1.0 Enabled CRITICAL
-25 pts
TLS 1.0 is enabled - deprecated and insecure
PCI-DSS 4.2.1 NDcPP FCS_TLS_EXT.1
Observed: TLS 1.0 connection accepted
Expected: TLS 1.2 and TLS 1.3 only
Remediation: Disable TLS 1.0 in server configuration. For nginx: ssl_protocols TLSv1.2 TLSv1.3;
WHY THIS MATTERS
Enables downgrade attacks. Large providers keep TLS 1.0 for legacy compatibility with extensive monitoring. Typical servers lack this oversight and are fully exploitable.
Loading fix...
TLS 1.1 Enabled MAJOR
-25 pts
TLS 1.1 is enabled - deprecated and insecure
PCI-DSS 4.2.1 NDcPP FCS_TLS_EXT.1
Observed: TLS 1.1 connection accepted
Expected: TLS 1.2 and TLS 1.3 only
Remediation: Disable TLS 1.1 in server configuration. For nginx: ssl_protocols TLSv1.2 TLSv1.3;
WHY THIS MATTERS
Deprecated protocol with known weaknesses. Should be disabled on all production servers to prevent protocol downgrade attacks.
Loading fix...
TLS 1.3 Support INFO
TLS 1.3 is supported
Vulnerability
BEAST (CVE-2011-3389) CRITICAL
-25 pts
Server vulnerable to BEAST attack
PCI-DSS 4.2.1
Observed: TLS 1.0 enabled with CBC cipher TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA
Expected: TLS 1.0 disabled or CBC ciphers removed
Remediation: Disable TLS 1.0 or remove CBC ciphers. Prefer TLS 1.2+ with GCM or ChaCha20.
WHY THIS MATTERS
Large enterprises like Google mitigate BEAST with hardened implementations and client-side fixes. Most servers don't have these safeguards - if this were your server, traffic could be decrypted.
Loading fix...
SWEET32 (CVE-2016-2183) MAJOR
-15 pts
Server vulnerable to SWEET32 birthday attack on 64-bit block ciphers
Observed: 3DES cipher supported: TLS_RSA_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA
Expected: No 3DES cipher suites
Remediation: Remove 3DES cipher suites. Use AES-GCM or ChaCha20-Poly1305 instead.
Loading fix...
Headers
HSTS MINOR
-10 pts
HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) header is not set
PCI-DSS 2.2.7
Observed: Strict-Transport-Security header missing
Expected: HSTS header with max-age >= 31536000
Remediation: Add HSTS header. For nginx: add_header Strict-Transport-Security "max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload";
WHY THIS MATTERS
First-time visitors can be intercepted via man-in-the-middle attacks. Critical for authentication endpoints where credentials are transmitted.
Loading fix...
Certificate
Certificate Validity INFO
Certificate is valid for 59 more days
! OCSP Stapling INFO
-5 pts
OCSP stapling is not enabled
Observed: No OCSP response in TLS handshake
Expected: OCSP stapling enabled for faster revocation checks
Remediation: Enable OCSP stapling. For nginx: ssl_stapling on; ssl_stapling_verify on;
WHY THIS MATTERS
Performance optimization that reduces latency for certificate revocation checks. Not a security vulnerability, but improves user experience.
Loading fix...
Certificate Transparency (SCT) INFO
-5 pts
No Signed Certificate Timestamps (SCT) found
Observed: No SCT in TLS handshake or certificate
Expected: SCT present for Certificate Transparency compliance
Remediation: Use a CA that supports Certificate Transparency. Most modern CAs include SCTs by default.
