Syslog over TLS

Is it possible to configure TLS for syslog? Is anything special needed beyond just defining the TLS port number for my syslog target? want to secure that traffic.

And do authentication for that matter?
That's one of my reoccurring nightmares: A compromised / spoofed syslog sink that gives adversaries real time feedback on their moves.

FreeBSD's syslog doesn't support TCP... which means we can't do TLS as well.
I have imported syslog-ng into the development version a few months ago intending to work on using that for syslog export, which would allow TCP and TLS.
Other things got in the way since, but it's still planned for 18.7.

What is the status of this? Was it added? I looked in the logging section of the GUI but found no mention of TLS as an option.

We do not have any contributor's time allocated for this still.
