Configuring Rational DOORS Web Access to comply with security standards

You can configure Rational® DOORS® Web Access to comply with standards that are specified by the US Department of Commerce National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and National Security Agency (NSA) to define security requirements for encryption.
The standards include Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) publication 140-2, NIST Special Publication (SP) 800-131A, and NSA Suite B.
Rational DOORS Web Access complies with these standards by using these IBM® SDK Java™ Technology Edition Version 6 components: Update 10 and later of these Java runtime components support FIPS 140-2 by using TLS 1.0 protocol. Update 12 and later are certified to support TLS versions 1.0, 1.1 and 1.2.

In addition, to ensure compliance, you must configure the server and client browsers as follows:
