Security Question - Public Key not available
Hello! I am trying to access some online class, but I'm having difficulty accessing them. I tried looking at the log and I found this:
4/11/14 3:59:23.215 PM secd[235]: SecErrorGetOSStatus unknown error domain: com.apple.security.sos.error for error: The operation couldn’t be completed. (com.apple.security.sos.error error 2 - Public Key not available - failed to register before call)
Can I have any help/clue in order for this to stop? If it helps, I tried doing this in AKO (military).
Thanks!
Thanks Mark M - That was the issue.
Of all the documentation in books and online i saw, basically say:
--Create a page, give it alias PUBLIC_PAGE
--At the page level, set it to "page is public"
--Change the logout URL in authentication template to redirect to the new page
The fourth step i guess is to make sure your app level authorization is set appropriately as well.
Thanks again.

AD password change comes up, user changes password.
Tries to send signed or encrypted email with a Comodo S/MIME certificate, and gets the following error:
""An error occurred in the underlying security system. Key not valid for us in specified state."
I now have two reports of this error - one on Windows 7, and one on Windows 8.0 (remote user).
The one on Windows 8.0, we tried removing their S/MIME cert from Outlook/Windows and re-adding, this did NOT resolve the issue.
Plan was originally to have the 8.0 user ship their machine in, and wipe it, since nothing else could fix it and I wasn't finding anyone else with the same issue. Now that I've got a second user with the same issue, its looking like a bug/issue and
not a random glitch.
Thanks in advance for any and all help with this!Hi,
Thank you for your question.
I am trying to involve someone familiar with this topic to further look at this issue.
Thanks,

Java.security.NosuchAlgorithmException: Algorithm DESede not available
Dear All,
I have created an adapter module using 3DES encryption/decryption algorithm for File/FTP adapter configuration and have deployed it at J2EE server of respective XI system.
The alogorithm and adapter module are working fine in DEV & QA environments but in Mirror system(which is similar to Prod), I have been encountering Error:-
java.security.NosuchAlgorithmException: Algorithm DESede not available
Code snippet for reference:-
// Convert the raw bytes to a secret key
DESedeKeySpec keyspec = new DESedeKeySpec(rawkey);
SecretKeyFactory keyfactory = SecretKeyFactory.getInstance("DESede");SecretKey key = keyfactory.generateSecret(keyspec);
return key;
Can you please suggest what could be issue here? Any inputs will be highly appreciated.
Thanks and Best Regards

Please be aware that you are not communicating with Apple when you post in these forums. The only people who will reply to your posts are your fellow users.
As to your issue, go to:
https://appleid.apple.com/
If you've forgotten your answers, there should be a link just under the security questions fields where you can have a reset email sent to your Rescue email address. If the link for the email doesn't appear, as can happen if you didn't set a rescue email address or (apparently) have a .Mac email address, go here:

to report the issue to the iTunes Store.

The Security Token Service is not available error on dedicated Distributed Cache server
I have an error on a dedicated Distributed Cache server stating that the Security Token Service is not available. I was under the impression that when Distributed Cache was running on a dedicated server that the only service that should be enabled
is Distributed Cache.
The token service is working as expected on all other servers but this one. Does this service need to be started or should I just ignore this error message?
Jennifer Knight (MCITP, MCPD)as per my little experience with 2013, if STS is working fine on Web server then I am sure that sharepoint will be fine...Distributed cache stores the ST issued by STS. NO need to worry about this error.
Login
Token Cache
DistributedLogonTokenCache
This
cache stores the security token issued by a Secure Token Service for use by any web server in the server farm. Any web server that receives a request for resources can access the security token from the cache, authenticate the user, and provide access to the
resources requested.
I would say check the ULS logs and get more details about the error why its not working on that server.
Please remember to mark your question as answered &Vote helpful,if this solves/helps your problem. ****************************************************************************************** Thanks -WS MCITP(SharePoint 2010, 2013) Blog: http://wscheema.com/blog -
ArchiveLink security: sending public key certificate by SCMS_HTTP_PUT_CERT
Hello!
I have a question which I asked on ESA and Security forums and didn't get answer.
I am trying to do a test program to check ArchiveLink security features. Namely, I am calling the function SCMS_HTTP_PUT_CERT which is supposed to send a public key certificate via HTTP. However, when I catch this call and want to import the certificate by using the function SSFC_PUT_CERTIFICATE, I get error message <i>SSF kernel error: invalid parameter</i>.
Does anyone have experience with this?
For more detailed description of my attempt, please see ArchiveLink security: sending public key certificate.
Thanks and regards,
IgorHi
SCMS_HTTP_PUT_CERT is used to send sap public key to Content server application. The content server application makes use of this key to verify the incoming request ie the Content Server uses the public key to check URIs and signatures.
SAP uses the Public/Private key security concept while communicating with Content server. Basically when SAP communicates with Content server it will be sending GET, PUT, POST requests. The URL from SAP will have field called secKey which contains the security key. secKey ensures that a URL cannot be changed after it has been generated by the SAP system. The private key is used by SAP to generate the secKey.
The content server application will use the public key provided via SCMS_HTTP_PUT_CERT to check the URL and will be able to detect if the URL has been tampered.
Refer SAP Content Server HTTP 4.5 Interface documentation section Security for more details.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/9b/e8c186eaf811d195580000e82deb58/frameset.htm
Hope this helps

i am having problems editing the security questions i do not remember i specifically followed the steps and the "send to rescue email" option does not appear even though my rescue email is verified please help me
<Email Edited by Host>As these are public forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support, I've asked the hosts to remove your email address from your post - it's not a good idea to post it unless you like spam email.
The reset link will only show if you have a rescue email address on your account - a rescue email address is not the same as an alternate/secondary email address, they are different addresses/settings on an account.
If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you won't get the reset option - you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.
Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
When they've been reset you can then use the steps half-way down the page that you posted from to add a rescue email address for potential future use -

If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support or Apple to get the questions reset (we are fellow users here on these forums).
e.g. you can try contacting iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management , and then 'Forgotten Apple ID security questions'
or try ringing Apple in your country and ask to talk to the Accounts Security Team : http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
When they've been reset you can then use the steps half-way down this page to add a rescue email address for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312 . Or, if it's available in your country, you could change to 2-step verification : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5570 -

The Security Token Service is not available -- SP Server on Windows 7
I just installed SharePoint Server 2010 on a Windows 7 workstation with the aim of setting up a development environment.
Installed all the prerequisites, then SP, everything seemed to go smoothly.
However, the Health Analyzer is warning my that "the Security Token Service is not available". It says that the "Administrator should try to restart the Security Token Service"
I looked under Services for my computer and also looked in IIS, did not see any thing that referenced security tokens. Where would I find the security token service?
Thanks.No.
In Central Admin>Application Management>Manage Service Applications I see the
Security Token Service Application is running. But the health analyzer is still saying that
The Security Token Service is not available.
Any advice on resolving this would be greatly appreciated. -
