At https://github.com/boostorg/asio/pull/283 <https://github.com/boostorg/asio/pull/283> I’ve attached a proof-of-concept which explores making ASIO secure by default. The C++ committee is discussing what secure-by-default networking would look like in the soon to be published papers P1860 and P1861. Since the C++ Networking TS is based on ASIO, this seems like a good place to try things out.

Please don't. There are plenty of networking applications that do not use SSL. Use ssl::stream if you want secure-by-default.
