SSL-Encrypted Communication

The Portal is a web-based application that is available to client computers through supported application servers. To configure SSL for the HTTPS transport of the application server, you first create an SSL key file (which defines the security policy). You then configure the application server to use the file. Property settings and common properties must be edited for the secure server.

Example: Create a Self-Signed Certificate

Example: How to Configure CA GovernanceMinder for SSL Communication

By default, JBoss is not installed with SSL support. This means that all communication between the application server and the Portal client is not encrypted. This example shows you how to configure JBoss version 5.1.0 to use a certificate to secure communication.
