TLS dan transport for Akamai

high5 checks

TLS protects credentials and session cookies in transit. A valid chain, a modern protocol and no downgrade path are the baseline.

What Akamai must have

  • Certificate chain validates against public trust stores
  • Expiry monitored automatically, no manual renewal
  • TLS 1.2 and 1.3 only; 1.0 and 1.1 disabled
  • HTTP redirects to HTTPS with a permanent redirect
  • No mixed content on any page

How to fix it

  1. 1Enable auto-renewal with your host or CDN and alert at 21 days remaining
  2. 2Force HTTPS at the edge and remove any route that serves plain HTTP

Akamai context

Enterprise CDN and WAF.

Origin must accept traffic only from Akamai ranges; otherwise the protection layer is cosmetic.
