TLS 1.3 Feature Checker — 1.3 and 0-RTT Support

Verify server supports TLS 1.3 and optional 0-RTT capability.

The TLS 1.3 Feature Checker confirms that a server supports TLS 1.3 and reports optional capabilities such as 0-RTT (early data). TLS 1.3 improves security and often latency; 0-RTT allows sending application data on the first flight when resuming a session. The tool performs a TLS 1.3 handshake and, where applicable, tests 0-RTT acceptance. Use it to validate that your host is offering TLS 1.3 and to see if 0-RTT is enabled—useful for performance tuning and for ensuring 0-RTT is only used where replay is acceptable.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why use TLS 1.3?

Faster handshake, stronger ciphers, no legacy options; better security and often better performance.

What is 0-RTT?

Resumption feature that lets the client send data in the first round-trip; can have replay implications.

Is 0-RTT safe?

Use only for idempotent or replay-safe operations; servers may limit 0-RTT or reject it for sensitive actions.

How do I enable TLS 1.3?

In your server or load balancer config, enable TLS 1.3 and prefer it over 1.2; most modern stacks support it.

Does the checker modify my server?

No. It only connects and observes handshake and optional 0-RTT; no configuration changes.
