I have received a notice from PayPal that my hosting environment and possibly my payment processor do not meet the new technical requirements coming in June of this year. I have my host checking to see that they are upgraded - do I need to do anything to the PayPal payment plugin? WIll there be an update to the payment plugin to address this?
Here is the info I received:
Below are a few key points concerning security updates we will begin implementing after June 30, 2017 and we strongly recommend your systems be compatible to ensure your business is not disrupted:
•The PayPal Sandbox, or testing environment, has been upgraded to allow only TLS 1.2 and HTTP/1.1 connections.
•All production endpoints will be updated to accept only TLS 1.2 and HTTP/1.1 connections after June 30, 2017. Please note that if you haven’t made the necessary upgrades to your systems to become compliant, your business will be unable to accept payments with PayPal until the required changes have been made.
•A verification endpoint is available, which can be found at https://tlstest.paypal.com and has the latest security standards so customers can quickly check if their systems are ready to accept transactions after June 30, 2017.
