Diffie-Hellman Security
-----------------------
To secure your web server, the `Guide to Deploying Diffie-Hellman for TLS`_
contains important information worth reading. This link contains some good
`secure Apache configuration`_ examples.
To secure your deployment of Diffie-Hellman, configure the following:
1. Generate a strong Diffie-hellman group, 2048-bit or stronger.
.. code-block:: bash
# to generate your dhparam.pem file, run in the terminal
openssl dhparam -out /etc/apache/ssl/dhparam.pem 2048
2. Configure your server to only use modern, secure cipher suites in the
virtual hosts configuration file.
.. code-block:: apache
# Set the protocol to only use modern, secure cipher suites.
SSLProtocol all -SSLv2 -SSLv3
