HTTP Strict Transport Security Support for HCS for CC Web Applications
In this release, the HCS for CC web applications such as Diagnostic Portico, CCE Administration, and Websetup will support HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS). The HCS for CC web applications will use the HSTS header to instruct the browsers to use only the HTTPS connections.
The Internet Script Editor (ISE) will use the HTTPS connection to communicate with the Administration and Data Server.
The interface to download the ISE client from the Administration and Data Server will happen only over the HTTPS connection and any attempt to download using an HTTP connection will be forbidden.
The following additional security hardening measures are added on the ISE installer location:
-
Disabled directory and wildcard listing.
-
Disabled anonymous authentication, and enabled basic or windows authentication.
-
Disabled the following unused HTTP methods: PUT, POST, and DELETE.
