Hi,
I tested Brave browser on Cloudflare’s security check tool:
I searched brave://flags for “ECH”, “encrypted”, and “TLS”
but found no related flag.
Firefox supports ECH via about:config. Since Brave is Chromium based
and Chromium has ECH support, is there a way to enable it in Brave?
Or is this planned for a future release?
Brave version: 1.90.128
OS: macOS
Brave Browser v1.90.128
MacOS 14.8.7 Sonoma
Private Window
Global Shields UP
JavaScript - Allowed for Cloudflare
Secure DNS - Disabled
Guest Wi-Fi
VPN
Brave Site-Specific Shields:
Okay, now I see.
My setup was Router level DoT with Cloudflare,
and Brave’s internal “Use secure DNS” was set to “OS default”
Fix: Go to brave://settings/security → “Use secure DNS” →
enable it and select Cloudflare (1.1.1.1).
After that, all 4 tests pass including Secure SNI (ECH).
So, Router DoT alone is not enough for ECH to work in Brave.
The browser needs its own DoH configured to Cloudflare as well.
