 Faraday is an HTTP client library that provides a common interface over many adapters.
 Every adapter is defined into its own gem. This gem defines the adapter for HTTPClient.
 
+> **Note**: Faraday 2.11.0 introduces a new SSL option: `ciphers`, allowing you to specify the SSL/TLS cipher suites. This adapter supports this option when using Faraday 2.11.0 or later.

 ```
 
+## SSL Configuration
+
+The adapter supports various SSL configuration options through Faraday's SSL options hash:
+
+### Standard SSL Options (All Versions)
+
+- `verify`: Enable/disable SSL verification (default: `true`)
+- `ca_file`: Path to CA certificate file
+- `ca_path`: Path to CA certificate directory
+- `cert_store`: Custom certificate store (instance of `OpenSSL::X509::Store`)
+- `client_cert`: Client certificate for authentication
+- `client_key`: Client private key for authentication
+- `verify_depth`: Maximum depth for certificate chain verification
+
+### Faraday 2.11.0+ SSL Options
+
+- `ciphers`: Array of cipher suite names to configure allowed SSL/TLS cipher suites
+
+When using SSL verification (the default), the adapter will use system CA certificates. You can customize this by providing a `ca_file`, `ca_path`, or `cert_store`.
+
 ## Development
 
 After checking out the repo, run `bin/setup` to install dependencies. Then, run `bin/test` to run the tests. You can also run `bin/console` for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.
