Backup Exec 15 Feature Pack 1

Windows Server 2012 R2

==========================

Hi, i'm running VA scan and the results show that i need to disable ssl 2.0 and 3,0.

I have disabled it from internet options level but the results from the VA scan still appear.

Anyone knows how we can disable the ssl v3 and are there any implications of doing this to the backup services?

SSL is used by BE for "trust relationships" between the BE media server and the remote servers. It can be disabled, however strictly not recommended and this can expose to MIM-type attacks.

I would instead recommend logging a formal support case for us to analyse which and why Vulnerability Scan is detecting SSL used by BE. Thanks.
