OHS must have the SSLEngine, SSLProtocol, and SSLWallet directives enabled and configured to maintain the confidentiality of controlled information during transmission through the use of an approved TLS version.

Description
Transport Layer Security (TLS) is a required transmission protocol for a web server hosting controlled information. The use of TLS provides confidentiality of data in transit between the web server and client. FIPS 140-2 approved TLS versions must be enabled and non-FIPS-approved SSL versions must be disabled. NIST SP 800-52 defines the approved TLS versions for government applications.

1. Open every .conf file (e.g., ssl.conf) included in $DOMAIN_HOME/config/fmwconfig/components/OHS//httpd.conf with an editor that requires an SSL-enabled "" directive. Note: Does not apply to admin.conf. 2. Search for the following directive at the OHS server, virtual host, and/or directory configuration scopes: "SSLEngine" "SSLProtocol" "SSLWallet" 3. If any of these directives are omitted, this is a finding. 4. If "SSLEngine" is not set to "On", or "SSLProtocol" is not set to "TLSv1.2", this is a finding. 5. Validate that the folder specified in the "SSLWallet" directive exists. If the folder does not exist or contain a valid wallet, this is a finding.

1. Open every .conf file (e.g., ssl.conf) included in $DOMAIN_HOME/config/fmwconfig/components/OHS//httpd.conf with an editor that requires an SSL-enabled "" directive. Note: Does not apply to admin.conf. 2a. Search for the "SSLEngine" directive at the OHS server, virtual host, and/or directory configuration scopes. 2b. Set the "SSLEngine" directive to "On"; add the directive if it does not exist. 3a. Search for the "SSLProtocol" directive at the OHS server configuration, virtual host, and/or directory levels. 3b. Set the "SSLProtocol" directive to "TLSv1.2"; add the directive if it does not exist. 4a. Search for the "SSLWallet" directive at the OHS server configuration, virtual host, and/or directory levels. 4b. Set the "SSLWallet" directive to the location (i.e., folder within $DOMAIN_HOME/config/fmwconfig/components/OHS/instances//keystores) of the Oracle wallet created via orapki with AES Encryption (-compat_v12 parameters) that contains only the identity certificate for the host and DoD Certificate Authorities, add the directive if it does not exist.
