This document discusses the increased usage of Transport Layer Security (TLS) across internet applications and networks due to revelations of global surveillance. It outlines responses by organizations like the IETF to strengthen security and privacy of internet protocols by incorporating TLS. These include new working groups to update TLS usage and deprecating insecure versions. As a result, network operators are encouraged to support TLS encrypted traffic and help customers adopt TLS for their services and applications. Challenges in monitoring encrypted traffic and validating certificate authenticity are also addressed.
