See this Comm Center thread by Tonis Enmae. The SSL v3 in the Dart engine should be TLS. Though this is a "low value" service it should still eventually be upgraded. I will file a ticket with Dart on this.

Check-in comment Change words on ACP Preferences to TLS, and pick up some stray uses of SSL in the docs. GEM:1718

REOPENED

Change wording in UI and help to TLS, noting that SSL is dead.

BOOYAH! I got a response from Dart with an update which allows me to force TLS 1.2. This results in the CDN-77 Checker giving a "moderate" rating (it's an advertising site for their TLS 1.3 capable library) showing that TLS 1.2 is supported and none of the older ones!! This is great as no longer are the browsers reporting "weak encryption"!!!

They say TLS 1.3 is coming.

Bump for 8.3, Chrome and FF are showing Not Secure for weak encryption now.
