SQL Server does support TLS1.2?

-
TLS 1.2 support for SQL Server 2017 on Windows, SQL Server 2016, SQL Server 2008, SQL Server 2008 R2, SQL Server 2012, and SQL Server 2014.Several known vulnerabilities have been reported against SSL and earlier versions of Transport Layer Security (TLS). So, it is  recommend that we have to upgrade to TLS 1.2 for secure communication.

 But OLEDB provider and ODBC providers will not work on TLS1.2 environment as  these Components Ship with Windows are legacy components and only provided for backward compatibility. These have been deprecated since SQL 2005.

 SQLOLEDB will not receive support for TLS 1.2. You will need to switch your driver to one of the supported drivers listed in https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/3135244

You should be able to install SQL Server Native Client 2012 and use that OLE DB provider with only a connection string change (Provider=SQLNCLI11).

Using OAUTH protocol, user can do authentication by Microsoft Web OAuth instead of inputting user and password directly in application Microsoft / Office 365 OAuth + EWS We can use the OAuth authentication service provided by Azure Active Directory to enable our application to connect with IMAP, POP or SMTP protocols to access Exchange Online in Office 365. To use OAuth with our application we need to register application on Azure Active directory and other steps also we need to do to get the access token back. Below are the steps   To use Microsoft/Office365 OAUTH in your application, you must create an application in  https://portal.azure.com . Sign into the Azure portal using either a work or school account or a personal Microsoft account. If your account gives you access to more than one tenant, select your account in the top ...

IoT technology The Internet of Things (IoT) is a system of interrelated computing devices, mechanical and digital machines.  IoT is a network of sensors where data is exchanged, using different connectivity protocols, with systems. This set up can be leveraged to create a new business application or to enhance an existing process. The exchange of the data can be bi-directional between sensors and systems Examples of sensors can be temperature sensors, motion sensors, flow meters, heart meter monitors, biometric devices, smoke detectors, & etc Examples of connectivity can be wifi, radio, GPRS, GSM, LAN, WAN, & etc. Examples of systems can be a remote health monitoring applications, SCADA applications, etc Look at next slide about the complete flow of IoT process Examples A doctor in US would like to monitor the heart rate and ECG of a patient in Hyderabad. This is done with the patient having sensors attached to him that collect the ECG data and the hea...

  What is a reverse proxy? A reverse proxy is a server that sits in front of web servers and forwards client (e.g. web browser) requests to those web servers. Reverse proxies are typically implemented to help increase  security ,  performance , and reliability . In order to better understand how a reverse proxy works and the benefits it can provide, let’s first define what a proxy server is. What’s a proxy server? A forward proxy, often called a proxy, proxy server, or web proxy, is a server that sits in front of a group of client machines. When those computers make requests to sites and services on the Internet, the proxy server intercepts those requests and then communicates with web servers on behalf of those clients, like a middleman. For example, let’s name 3 computers involved in a typical forward proxy communication: A: This is a user’s home computer B: This is a forward proxy server C: This is a website’s origin server (where the website data is stored) In a stand...
