What is this change?  

At Zuora, our customers trust is our #1 value, and we take the protection of our customers' data very seriously. To maintain the highest security standards and promote the protection of your data, we occasionally need to make security improvements and deprecate older SSL and encryption protocols.

Phase 1 - Zuora Billing API Sandbox and all NON production Zuora Billing environments

On Monday October 26, 2020 from 8 AM PST - 1 PM PST, we will begin to enforce TLS 1.2 protocol only and disable TLS 1.1 connections
