IIS Crypto

IIS Crypto is a free tool that gives administrators the ability to enable or disable protocols, ciphers, hashes and key exchange algorithms on Windows Server 2008, 2012, 2016, 2019 and 2022. It also lets you reorder SSL/TLS cipher suites offered by IIS, change advanced settings, implement Best Practices with a single click, create custom templates and test your website.

IIS Crypto updates the registry using the same settings from this article by Microsoft. It also updates the cipher suite order in the same way that the Group Policy Editor (gpedit.msc) does. Additionally IIS Crypto lets you create custom templates that can be saved for use on multiple servers. The command line version contains the same built-in templates as the GUI version and can also be used with your own custom templates.

You can download IIS Crypto in both GUI and command line versions.
