Hotmail Security, the default configuration through the wizard uses SSL?

I was wondering if there is a way to check the server settings used by the default wizard when you add an hotmail account to your device (iPad , iPhone or others). The main concern is if it uses actually the SSL encryption or not. I think so and I hope so but I'm not sure 100%. If you go to check it there's not an advanced tab under Mail/Account/nameofaccount/ so you can't see that. Thanks to everyone!

Should this be a security concern that I am using the
default keystore that comes with the JVM. Is my data
still be encrypted?When you say, "default keystore", I assume that you mean the "cacerts" file. If so, you're OK. "cacerts" identifies root CAs that your client is willing to trust. Web sites whose site-certs are signed by one of the root CA in cacerts (i.e., Verisign, Thawte, et. al.) will be trusted by JSSE.
SSL generates shared-keys anew for each new session. The data used to generate this "shared secret" is protected; unless the Bad Boy between you and the server has access to the SERVER's private key, that info is safe. Your data is encrypted over the wire, and only the destination web-server will be able to decrypt it.

  • Where is the icon used to designate secure connection to a site (https) in Firefox 6.0 It seems to have disapppeared? Thanks.

    Constant changes to the Firefox UI between versions are annoying and while I understand your desire to improve the product lots of changes just serve to irritate.
    Hence my question. Where in Firefox 6 is the "secure page" or padlock icon displayed when using SSL?

    In Firefox 4 and later you no longer have the Status bar that showed the padlock in previous Firefox versions.<br />
    The padlock only shows that there is a secure connection and doesn't guarantee that you are connected to the right server.<br />
    So you might still be connected to the wrong server if you make a typo in the URL and someone has claimed that mistyped URL.<br />
    The functionality of the padlock has been replaced by the [[Site Identity Button]] on the left end of the location bar.

  • Confused about the 11g R2 Forms Server and using SSL

    All,
    I just installed the 11g R2 Forms Server software without configuring it.
    I then ran the config.sh script to configure it which creates a weblogic server domain.
    I'm a bit confused now. If I run opmnctl status command I get the following:
    Processes in Instance: frmrep_inst_1
    --------------------------------------------------------------+---------
    ias-component | process-type | pid | status
    --------------------------------------------------------------+---------
    emagent_frmrep_inst_1 | EMAGENT | 28279 | Alive
    RptSvr_eiaorapptest_frmrep_ins | ReportsServerComp~ | 28124 | Alive
    ohs1 | OHS | 27831 | Alive
    This looks to me like there is an Oracle Http Server installed.
    Is the Oracle Http Server answering web calls when I run forms or is the Weg Logic Server answering the call?
    Also, the Oracle Forms Installation Documentation talks about securing your environment with Oracle Identity Manager but we are not using Oracle Identity Manager. I want to use SSL but I'm not sure how to secure the environment with SSL. Do I need to configure the WebLogic server to use SSL or the OHS?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Cheers

    Fusion Middleware 11.1.x does include HTTP Server (OHS) and also requires WLS. Both HTTP Server and WLS are http listeners, amongst other things. So whether WLS handles a request or HTTP Server does it will be entirely up to you and/or the end-user.
    OHS has a listener which by default (in FMw) listens for requests on port 8888. On the other hand WLS_FORMS is preconfigured to listen on port 9001.
    This means that if your URL looks like the following, WLS_FORMS will directly answer the client:
    <blockquote>http://server:9001/forms/frmservlet?form=abc</blockquote>
    If the URL looks like the following, the HTTP Server will reply:
    <blockquote>http://server:8888/forms/frmservlet?form=abc</blockquote>
    The request path when using OHS as the listener to call Oracle Forms would look like this:
    <blockquote>CLIENT --- OHS --- WLS_FORMS --- FORMS SERVLET --- FORMS RUNTIME (frmweb.exe) --- DATABASE</blockquote>
    The request path when using WLS_FORMS as the listener to call Oracle Forms would look like this:
    <blockquote>CLIENT --- WLS_FORMS --- FORMS SERVLET --- FORMS RUNTIME (frmweb.exe) --- DATABASE</blockquote>
    Although removing OHS from the path would seem to be better because it is one less server to administer and less system resources consumed, generally it would be argued that the advantages of having it will outweigh the disadvantages.
    There are numerous advantages to use OHS in front of WLS, but the most obvious should be that OHS can be set up so that you have one and only one entry point into your FMw environment. In other words, even though for example Forms WLS listens on 9001 and Reports on 9002 and some other app on 9999, all requests can be routed through a single OHS port (e.g. 8888). This gives added security since only one port would need to be open assuming a firewall was in place. This configuration is also helpful when calling one application from another. For example when calling Reports from Forms. If you use OHS, references to other WLS managed servers can be called with a relative reference rather than a fully qualified one.
    Regarding whether or not SSL needs to be enabled at any particular point in the path is entirely up to you. You can enable SSL from the client all the way back to the db or any where in between. It is fairly common to see SSL between the client and OHS then no SSL to WLS. But if security is a great concern then you may want to consider SSL from front to back. However, keep in mind that SSL comes at a price. Performance will degrade slightly when SSL is enabled.
    Also, OAM (Oracle Access Manager) has nothing to do with SSL. SSL refers to traffic encryption. OAM is for authentication - single sign on.
    Consider reviewing the Forms Deployment Guide as well as the other Fusion Middleware documents referenced within it.
    <blockquote>http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E24269_01/index.htm</blockquote>
    Finally, and most important, this topic really has nothing to do with Oracle Forms. This is more about how a web server or its environment works.

  • Configuring GALsync to use SSL

    Hi all,
    Does anyone have a link to instructions for configuring FIM GALsync to use SSL rather than just sign and encrypt LDAP traffic please?
    just ticking the box doesn't work, so I'm assuming certificates need to be installed at both ends, not sure what certificates (internal vs public CA), or where to install them (just at the OS level?)
    Thanks
    Charlie

    I don't have access to logs right now, but to answer your other question, SSL works fine when sending from Mail.
    But with Mail, I supply the username and password; which user does SquirrelMail use to send?

  • How to retrive the overwritten SAP Default Configuration

    Hi There,
    I was trying to enhance the component BT115IT_SLSO to add some new fields into the table view Items.
    I copied the view configuration to my Z config key but by mistake & added the fields into the default view and saved the changes. Now the default configuration is screwed up.
    Can some one point out how to retrive the SAP standard configuration( where it is stored ). In the configuration tab of the view the configuration looks ok but in Web UI I see all the columns available in the context node, and makes the view useless, when I go to the personlization of the view all fields shows the message < Error in Meta data > and I can not see the details of the fields.
    I have already backed off my enhancement. Now I want to retrive the view configuration.
    Your help will be highly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Vikash.

    Issue resolved.
    Solution was In BSP workbench when I went to choose configuration I saw that just next to std conf there was column for cust conf. and both were marked X so I deleted the conf and that gave me the standard conf back.
    Thanks,
    Vikash.

  • Defining a RESTful svc with delimited params using the "Configure HTTP Svc" wizard in FB 4 beta 2

    I am using Flash Builder 4 beta 2. I would like to create and configure a RESTful HTTP service that uses delimited parameters. The instructions here,
    http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Flex/4.0/AccessingData/WSbde04e3d3e6474c4-668f02f4120d422cf08-7ffe.html#WSbde04e3d3e6474c4-757e06e1253c6333fe-8000 <http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Flex/4.0/AccessingData/WSbde04e3d3e6474c4-668f02f4120d422cf08- 7ffe.html#WSbde04e3d3e6474c4-757e06e1253c6333fe-8000> , explain how to do this under the "RESTful services" bullet in the "Configuring HTTP Services" section. However, when I follow these instructions by  specifying a URL to an operation, including the delimited query parameters for the service operation inside '{}" braces, the Configure HTTP Service wizard does *not* populate the Parameter table with the parameters enclosed in "{}" braces. Further, even if I add the parameters manually to the Parameter table, the requests go out using the URL encoded string literals (e.g. "http://restfulService/%7Bitems%7D/%7BitemID%7D") rather than with the parameter values passed to the service request method.
    As I'm new to Flex, I assume I am doing something wrong. I have searched the forums and the bug database for some insight into what might be my problem, and I have not come across anything. Any help would be appreciated.
    Regards,
    K. Hal Purdy

    Sunil,
    Thanks for the info. From a comment I posted in the corresponding documentation (http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Flex/4.0/AccessingData/WSbde04e3d3e6474c4-668f02f4120d422cf08- 7ffe.html#WSbde04e3d3e6474c4-757e06e1253c6333fe-8000), Randy Nielsen of Adobe contacted me and has requested that I (AT&T) be able to participate in the private beta program. It's my understanding that I would need to be in this program in order to run the latest build. I will have to work with AT&T Legal on the NDA so that may take a little while.
    To help me refine my Flex/FB 4 issue investigation technique, I'm curious : Is there a trouble report that references this problem? The closest one I could find was this one which seemed to suggest that no parameters would work and was entered against Gumbo, Beta 1: http://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/FB-21146.
    Thanks again for the response.

  • Configuring the default configuration profile for Profile Manager

    Hello folks,
    I would like to edit the default configuration profile served by Profile Manger. As far as I understand the only thing I can configure from the Server.app is the name of the profile. The settings for the different services provided by the server (such Mail, Messages, etc.) are automatically chosen by Server.app. When logging as an administrator on the Profile Manager webapp, I can go to "Groups", choose "Everyone", go to "Settings" to review the different payloads. However, almost none of the settings are editable. You can read "This payload is configured using the Server app" on the top of the various panels.
    So my question is: How do you use Server to tweek those payloads? Can this be done using the serveradmin command line tool?
    Thank you very much for your help.
    Regards

    Bump. This is annoying the crap out of me. Every time I try to design a website using Coda, this color picker bug plagues me. I just wish I could turn off color profiles completely as I will never use them.

  • When i try and write an email using my hotmail account the attachment button will not work. If i access hotmail through explorer it does work.

    I have cleared the cache and also deleted all the cookies using the tools button. I am not sure what to try next

    Quit the mail app and then launch it again and select the draft and try again.
    Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps.
    If that doesn't work, reset the iPad.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

  • HT203177 how do I set up a pop3 account - the wizard sets up an IMAP account

    I need to set up a POP mail account to simplify life with multip accounts.  The wizard seems to not give a choice and goes the IMAP way!
    I am on a MacBook Pro using Mountain Lion with the latest fixes installed.
    Thanks

    Auto configuring a new iMac under OSX 10.8 was a breeze until I started getting mail pushed to me in volumes that initially was confusing until I perused my Mail App settings. IMAP was a surprise and I made a big mistake by calling ATT tech and following their advice on editing the server settings! Mail App was severely wounded and behaving like it was off the wire. I next discovered that under 10.8 I had no ready access to preferences in my home user directory! No Preferences folder? So how am I going to delete and rebuild com.apple.mail.plist??? That issue was resolved by moving in through the GO menu again holding down the OPTION key which lit up the prefs folder. Holy moly - there is no com.apple.mail.plist under Mountain Lion! So then even the nuclear option appeared to be no longer available. This huge conundrum was quickly resolved when the <option> <continue> trick opened the stealthed window for POP mail protocol selection. I suppose I can understand Apple's thinking behind defaulting to IMAP protocols but not providing a clear pathway to selecting the POP protocol is less than I expect of Mother Apple.
    FWIW, I also noted that launch/retrieve speed of numerous test emails that I sent to myself clearly demonstrated that POP is many times faster than IMAP in getting mail in and out of my machine.

  • Securing the IIOP Listener/Handler with SSL

    Hi,
    I am looking into securing CORBA client connections to ISL/ISH with SSL. Client authentication is not needed, just encryption and server authentication. Having looked through the documentation I have a couple of questions about this.
    1. The "Using Security in CORBA Applications" manual says that an LDAP server is used as the certificate repository for the ISL/ISH server certificate. Are there alternatives to this such as using a keystore or is LDAP the only option?
    2. Is it possible to configure the LDAP server (server name, port etc) without re-installing Tuxedo?
    Regards
    Ian

    Ian,
    Tuxedo uses a plugin framework architecture to manage certificates and it is possible to replace any of the plugin framework implementations.
    In order to change the plugin framework interfaces you will need to obtain information about the epif* commands and the plugin framework interfaces and you will need to write some code. The plugin framework documentation is made available on an as-needed basis.
    As documented at http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E15261_01/tuxedo/docs11gr1/sec/secadm.html#wp1239453 , "For more information about security plug-ins, including installation and configuration procedures, see your Oracle account executive."
    The command "epifregedt -g" shows the current plugin framework settings.
    The command "epifregedt -g -k SYSTEM/impl/security/BEA/certificate_lookup" shows just the settings for the security/BEA/certificate_lookup interface.
    The command "epifregedt -g -k SYSTEM/impl/security/BEA/certificate_lookup -a Params" shows just the instantiation parameters for this interface.
    Assume that the output from this command is
    IMPLEMENTATION security/BEA/certificate_lookup
    Instantiation Parameters :
    "userCertificateLdap=ldap://localhost:389/"
    "filterFileLocation=file:///home/tuxdir/udataobj/security/bea_ldap_filter.dat"
    Then the command
    epifregedt -s -k SYSTEM/impl/security/BEA/certificate_lookup \
    -a Params=userCertificateLdap=ldap://abcxyz:1389/ \
    -a Params=filterFileLocation=file:///home/tuxdir/udataobj/security/bea_ldap_filter.dat
    will change the LDAP location to ldap://abcxyz:1389/
    Note that it is necessary to respecify the filterFileLocation with this command even though it is not changing.
    Thus, it is not necessary to reinstall Tuxedo in order to change the LDAP parameters.
    Since the registry modification commands can be tricky to use, you may want to experiment with these commands on a development system or you may want to
    export REG_KEY_SYSTEM=<TEMPORARY_DIRECTORY>/System.rdp
    cp $TUXDIR/udataobj/System.rdp $REG_KEY_SYSTEM
    before experimenting with epifregedt -s. (The value of REG_KEY_SYSTEM will override the default of $TUXDIR/udataobj/System.rdp .)

  • SSPI handshake failed with error code 0x8009030c while establishing a connection with integrated security; the connection has be

    Hello, I have a sql 2005 server, and I am a developer, with the database on my own machine.  It alwayws works for me but after some minutes the other developer cant work in the application
    He got this error
    Login failed for user ''. The user is not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection. [CLIENT: 192.168.1.140]
    and When I see the log event after that error, it comes with another error.
    SSPI handshake failed with error code 0x8009030c while establishing a connection with integrated security; the connection has been closed. [CLIENT: 192.168.1.140]
    He has IIS5 and me too.
    I created a user on the domain called ASPSYS with password, then in the IIS on anonymous authentication I put that user with that password, and it works, on both machines.
    and in the connection string I have.
    <add key="sqlconn" value="Data Source=ESTACION15;Initial Catalog=GescomDefinitiva;Integrated Security=SSPI; Trusted_Connection=true"/>
    I go to the profiler, and I see that when he browses a page, the database is accesed with user ASPSYS, but when I browse a page, the database is accesed with user SE\levalencia.
    Thats strange.
    The only way that the other developer can work again on the project is to restart the whole machine. He has windows xp profession, I have windows 2000.
    If you want me to send logs please tellme

    Well here's my problem, maybe you can help. Intermittenly I get a login failed when connecting to a db engine through Server Management Studio using Windows authentication. When this happens the following entries are generated on the server's application event log:

    I've already ensured that the server is set to mixed authentication mode. Oddly enough, the workaround that I've found is that if I remote desktop into the server, log in and then log back out, Management Studio is suddenly able to connect again. No idea why it works. 
    As I said before, it is intermitten. Some days it errors on login, other days it doesn't and there are no configuration changes between them. Also, both client and server are in the same domain and same site so there is no VPN or anything in between. I'm really quite stumped. Any help would be great, or if you can point me in the right direction of where to look. Thank you in advance!

  • Stamps being removed after securing the pdf document

    I'm having a problem with the whitebox stamps that I use to white out names on a pdf being removed after the document is secured through a custom batch process. After insterting the stamps that white out what I want I save the document and when I open it again the white box stamps are still there. Once I secure the same document and open it the stamps are removed. Other computers using the same batch process and version of acrobat do not have this issue.
    Any theories would be much appreciated.

    So I have installed Acrobat 8.0 Pro and used the redaction tool which for some reason was keeping a line showing of the white box I was trying to use to remove some content. Also I put the batch process I was using to secure the document doesn't show up when I go into the Batch Processing menu, neither do any of the default ones show up. It just has an option to create a new process.
