 If your server or database is already configured with minimum TLS 1.2, or configured with no minimum TLS (the default setting in SQL Database and SQL Managed Instance `minimalTLSVersion` that maps to `0`) and connecting with 1.2, no action is required.

 - A new feature introduced with SQL Server 2022 (16.x) is [Parameter Sensitive Plan optimization](/sql/relational-databases/performance/parameter-sensitivity-plan-optimization), which attempts to mitigate most suboptimal query plans caused by parameter sensitivity. This is enabled with database compatibility level 160.
 - Use the [RECOMPILE](/sql/t-sql/queries/hints-transact-sql-query) query hint at each query execution. This workaround trades compilation time and increased CPU for better plan quality. The `RECOMPILE` option is often not possible for workloads that require a high throughput. 
-- Use the [OPTION (OPTIMIZE FOR…)](/sql/t-sql/queries/hints-transact-sql-query) query hint to override the actual parameter value with a typical parameter value that produces a plan that's good enough for most parameter value possibilities.

This option requires a good understanding of optimal parameter values and associated plan characteristics.
 - Use the [OPTION (OPTIMIZE FOR UNKNOWN)](/sql/t-sql/queries/hints-transact-sql-query) query hint to override the actual parameter value and instead use the density vector average. You can also do this by capturing the incoming parameter values in local variables and then using the local variables within the predicates instead of using the parameters themselves. For this fix, the average density must be *good enough*.
 - Disable parameter sniffing entirely by using the [DISABLE_PARAMETER_SNIFFING](/sql/t-sql/queries/hints-transact-sql-query) query hint.
 - Use the [KEEPFIXEDPLAN](/sql/t-sql/queries/hints-transact-sql-query) query hint to prevent recompilations in cache. This workaround assumes that the good-enough common plan is the one in cache already. You can also disable automatic statistics updates to reduce the chances that the good plan will be evicted and a new bad plan will be compiled.
