Enable TLS 1.2 in Internet Explorer 11

What is TLS 1.2?

TLS 1.2 is the most recent version of Transport Layer Security, which is cryptographic protocols for communication security for transferring information.

I don't use Internet Explorer 11, I prefer Chrome or Firefox.

We do as well! Because both of those browsers have to be installed separately, WebLink Connect (Atlas) relies on Internet Explorer 11 for initiating the desktop application since Internet Explorer comes on every Microsoft Windows OS.
