Issue
Knowing the type of cryptographic protocols that Vista uses for communication security.
Product Line
TAC Vista
Environment
- TAC Vista Server
- TAC Xenta Server
- SSL
Cause
Some systems will require to know the security protocols that TAC Vista uses in order to ensure communication across their network.
Resolution
At this time TAC Vista only supports Secure Socket Layer version 3 (SSLv3) to ensure data integrity and security for network communications. More specifically the SSLv3 cryptography algorithm is:
SSL_RSA_WITH_RC4_128_SHA
This security protocol is hardcoded into the server and is not adjustable.
Note: Be aware of other SSL-related issues, mentioned in the following articles:
