post snowden ssl-hardening:

ssl_prefer_server_ciphers On;
ssl_protocols TLSv1 TLSv1.1 TLSv1.2 SSLv3;
ssl_ciphers ECDH+AESGCM:DH+AESGCM:ECDH+AES256:DH+AES256:ECDH+AES128:DH+AES:ECDH+3DES:DH+3DES:RSA+AESGCM:RSA+AES:RSA+3DES:!aNULL:!MD5:!DSS;

PFS

cd /path/to/your/certs/
openssl dhparam -out dhparam.pem 2048

and edit nginx config:

ssl_dhparam /path/to/your/certs/dhparam.pem;
