Reduce the complexity of TLS management

TLS encryption (Transport Layer Security) protects data in transit by encrypting traffic between clients and servers. It prevents eavesdropping, tampering, and man-in-the-middle attacks. For modern applications handling sensitive data, TLS encryption is foundational to security, compliance, and user trust—especially at global scale.

Fastly terminates and processes TLS encrypted traffic directly at the edge, close to users. This reduces latency while maintaining strong cryptographic security. By offloading TLS operations from origin servers, Fastly improves performance without compromising encryption strength or visibility into traffic behavior.

Fastly’s TLS management is designed for speed, automation, and control. Teams can provision, rotate, and manage certificates at scale without manual workflows or downtime. TLS configuration is integrated into Fastly’s platform, enabling real-time updates and fine-grained control that traditional certificate management tools often lack.

Yes. Fastly simplifies TLS management by automating certificate issuance, renewal, and deployment. This reduces operational risk and eliminates common failure points like expired certificates—freeing security managers and engineering teams to focus on higher-value work.

Fastly provides centralized visibility and control over TLS encryption policies, making it easier for security managers to enforce standards across environments. With edge-level controls and real-time configuration, security teams can respond quickly to threats, compliance requirements, or cryptographic changes.

Fastly supports modern TLS protocols and strong cipher suites aligned with current security best practices. This ensures TLS encrypted traffic remains both secure and performant, while giving organizations flexibility to meet internal security policies and regulatory requirements.

Fastly’s edge architecture minimizes the performance overhead typically associated with TLS encryption. By handling encryption close to end users and optimizing handshake processes, Fastly delivers secure connections without sacrificing speed or user experience.

Absolutely. Fastly’s TLS management integrates seamlessly with broader security workflows and infrastructure. It complements application security, zero trust architectures, and compliance initiatives while giving teams granular control at the edge.

Yes. Fastly’s platform is built for high-traffic, globally distributed applications that require consistent TLS encryption everywhere users connect. Whether you’re serving APIs, websites, or streaming content, Fastly scales TLS encrypted delivery reliably across regions.

Fastly enables organizations to enforce TLS encryption consistently, helping meet industry and regulatory requirements for data protection. With centralized TLS management and rapid configuration changes, teams can adapt quickly as compliance standards evolve.
