# Encrypting and Authenticating Connections with TLS
While authentication limits which clients can connect, TLS can be used to encrypt traffic between client/server and check the servers identity. Additionally - in the most secure version of TLS with NATS - the server can be configured to verify the client's identity, thus authenticating it. When started in TLS mode, a `nats-server` will require all clients to connect with TLS. Moreover, if configured to connect with TLS, client libraries will fail to connect to a server without TLS.
