Transport Layer Security (TLS) is the next generation for Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocal. It provides secure communication over internet. TLS is used by Web Browsers and other applications which require data to be securely exchanged over a network such as VPN, email, FTP etc.
Windows 7 support TLS 1.1 and TLS 1.2, but those are not enabled by default. Those are enabled by default in later versions such as Windows 8, 10. We can enable it in Windows 7 by using the following steps
