Apache options

For a better encrypted connection I use this in the apache configuration:

 SSLProtocol all -SSLv2 -SSLv3
 SSLHonorCipherOrder on 
 SSLCipherSuite "EECDH+AESGCM EDH+AESGCM EECDH DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA -RC4
EDH -CAMELLIA -SEED !aNULL !eNULL !LOW !3DES !MD5 !EXP !PSK !SRP !DSS !
RC4"

It disables SSL. IE <10 does not support these higher ciphers but I don't use this browser.

DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA is needed for TLS 1.0 and can be removed if 1.2 is supported by server and client.

You can test your ssl configuration with ssllabs.com.
