Cloudflare has introduced Automatic Key Exchange for origin TLS 1.3 connections, replacing manual algorithm guessing with measured probing of each origin’s supported key agreement methods. The rollout reduces HelloRetryRequests and handshake latency, while expanding automatic post-quantum hybrid connections using X25519MLKEM768 across hundreds of thousands of domains.
