Default SSL configuration of apache out-of-the-box is not that secure.
From testssl.sh report, there were “NOT ok” items as below:
–> Testing protocols (via sockets except TLS 1.2 and SPDY/NPN)
SSLv2 not offered (OK)
SSLv3 offered (NOT ok)
TLS 1 offered
TLS 1.1 offered

–> Testing server preferences
Has server cipher order? nope (NOT ok)
Negotiated protocol TLSv1.2
Negotiated cipher ECDHE-RSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384, 256 bit ECDH (limited sense as client will pick)
Negotiated cipher per proto (limited sense as client will pick)
ECDHE-RSA-AES256-SHA: SSLv3, TLSv1, TLSv1.1
ECDHE-RSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384: TLSv1.2
No further cipher order check has been done as order is determined by the client
–> Testing vulnerabilities
Heartbleed (CVE-2014-0160) not vulnerable (OK) (timed out)

— but also supports higher protocols (possible mitigation): TLSv1.1 TLSv1.2
RC4 (CVE-2013-2566, CVE-2015-2808) VULNERABLE (NOT ok): ECDHE-RSA-RC4-SHA RC4-SHA RC4-MD5 RC4-MD5
And there’s way too many insecure ciphers:
