**ssl-ciphers:** Sets the [ciphers](http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_ssl_module.html#ssl_ciphers) list to enable. The ciphers are specified in the format understood by the OpenSSL library.

The default cipher list is:

The ordering of a ciphersuite is very important because it decides which algorithms are going to be selected in priority.
The recommendation above prioritizes algorithms that provide perfect [forward secrecy](https://wiki.mozilla.org/Security/Server_Side_TLS#Forward_Secrecy).

**ssl-protocols:** Sets the [SSL protocols](http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_ssl_module.html#ssl_protocols) to use.
The default is: `TLSv1 TLSv1.1 TLSv1.2`.
The default is: `TLSv1.2`.

TLSv1 is enabled to allow old clients like:
