Settings - Enforced TLS


The Enforced TLS settings specify whether or not the recipient of your send is required to support TLS or have a valid certificate. The Enforced TLS endpoint supports retrieving and updating TLS settings.

Twilio SendGrid sends all emails with Opportunistic TLS(link takes you to an external page) by default, meaning email is sent with TLS, and if the recipient's inbox provider does not accept the TLS encryption, we then send the message unencrypted.

You can optionally choose to enforce TLS encryption, meaning that if the recipient's inbox provider does not accept the TLS encryption, Twilio SendGrid drops the message and sends a block event with "TLS required but not supported" as the description.
