Hello Everyone, MID Server 3DES Support

[_paranthaman_]

Our records indicate that your noted instance(s) use MID Server with SSH-based Discovery and/or SSH-based integrations. As part of the

Now Platform® Xanadu release, MID Servers with SSH-based Discovery and/or SSH-based integrations will no longer accept three- key Triple DES (3DES) based encryption with SSH, as NIST 800-131A Rev 2 has recommended against using 3DES to encrypt data after 2023.

How to Configure?

HI @_paranthaman_ ,

[_paranthaman_]

@Community Alums Thanks for the reply...
But this steps are only for password2 fields right?
How to Ensure that MID servers can communicate using alternative encryption methods (e.g., AES, or other NIST-compliant ciphers).

Hi @_paranthaman_ ,

You Check the SSH configuration on the MID Servers to ensure they are set to use secure ciphers as per xandu. You can usually configure this in the SSH server settings file.

Edit the /etc/ssh/sshd_config file to specify allowed ciphers. 

For example:

Ciphers aes256-ctr,aes192-ctr,aes128-ctr

Make sure to restart SSH service after change. I hope this helps....

Doesn't that knowledge article also contain the solution?
