When FIPS 140-2 compliance is enabled in the Enterprise Console, some functionality that
is not FIPS 140-2 compliant will not work as expected or will be disabled. By default, the
Enterprise Console is compliant with the NIST 800-131a transition mode. When you run AppScan® Server Configuration Wizard, it will detect whether
or not your environment is in NIST strict mode and will respect those settings.
About this task

Procedure
- In the Enterprise Console, go to the General Settings page
of the Administration view, and click Edit in
the Enterprise Console Settings section.
-
By default, the check box in the Enable enhanced security section is cleared. Select
the option if your organization must be compliant with FIPS 140-2 or NIST SP 800-131a.
Note: Upon upgrade from version 8.7, the check box keeps the value it had before upgrade. If
you were FIPS compliant, then this checkbox remains selected; otherwise, it remains
cleared.
- Click Done.
