Server configuration
- SQL Server hardware configurations for Identity Finder's Console Server
- Communication with clients
- All communication between the clients and the service is encrypted regardless of whether https is used. ID Finder tech support says: "For the /Console access HTTPS is fine, however there could potentially be issues with the /Services application (/Services is what the client uses to send data to the console). The issue is that if the HTTPS certificates are not fully trusted on the client, then it will not allow communication with the server. HTTPS is not necessary on the /Services application because the Identity Finder Client will encrypt all data with AES encryption before sending it to the server. Our recommended configuration is to have HTTPS enabled for /Console but not for /Services. If you are unable to use this type of configuration let us know and we can try and help you get HTTPS working for /Services."
- If server is unavailable, clients store report information until server can be contacted
Client configuration
- From CALS (both MSI configuration and server policy configuration)
- Command line switches
