Cipher suites
Cloudflare Tunnel connections use the cipher suites supported by cloudflared, which relies on the Go TLS library for its TLS implementation. When establishing a TLS connection to your origin, cloudflared will negotiate the most secure cipher suite supported by both sides.
The following table lists the cipher suites supported by cloudflared:
| Protocol support | Cipher suites |
|---|---|
| TLS 1.3 only | TLS_AES_128_GCM_SHA256TLS_AES_256_GCM_SHA384TLS_CHACHA20_POLY1305_SHA256 |
| TLS 1.2 only | TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_CHACHA20_POLY1305_SHA256TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_CHACHA20_POLY1305_SHA256 |
| Up to and including TLS 1.2 | TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHATLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHATLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHATLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA |
