Vulnerability Mitigation for TLS 1.0 and Weak Ciphers

Hello,

I need  instructions to mitigate the following two vulnerabilities from our Gateways : 

1) Enable Support for TLS 1.1 and TLS 1.2 , and disable TLS  1.0

2) Removal of Weak Ciphers

We are using a VSX Cluster environment with R80.10

Also, what could be the after effects after removing these vulnerabilities on the existing production environment.

Please suggest.

 

Thanks

As there isn't one global "use TLSv1.2" and "disable weak ciphers" setting, we need some more context, namely on what ports these issues were found.
The main one the comes up (Gaia WEBUI) isn't relevant on VSX.

What blades are active on this gateway?
Like I said, the main culprit (the Gaia WebUI) is not active on VSX.

Maybe also SSL Inspection ? Then see sk126613: Cipherconfiguration tool for R80.x Gateways.

1) Enable Support for TLS 1.1 and TLS 1.2 , and disable TLS  1.0

Note: I am a novice user, so please check in test setup before applying to production.

Solution: In Smart console menu->Global properties->Advanced->Configure...

Go to portal properties, there it will show option to set max and min ssl version attributes.

There you may change ssl min. version from TLS1.0 to TLS1.1.
