Yes, that is possible, see snip from Monit 5.27.0:
--8<--
Version 5.27.0
Important: (Backward compatibility impact) The SSL "version: auto" now
defaults to TLSv1.2 and TLSv1.3 only.
If you need to enable TLSv1.0 or TLSv1.1 (regardless of how insecure it is),
you have to explicitly enable it
via the SSL option, example: set ssl {
version: tlsv11
}
