How to customize the ciphers in Kaseya - Connect IT Community | Kaseya
<main> <article class="userContent"> <p>We can customize the ciphers in the <strong>KaseyaEdgeServices.config</strong> file.</p> <p>Deleting specific ciphers enables the customer to limit the type of ciphers offered to clients ( for e.g removing DES ciphers will disable all 3DES cipher suites).<br><br><strong>Please note</strong> that limiting cipher suites will also break compatibility with clients that do not support modern cipher suites (i.e. older browsers and operating systems).</p> <p>You can make these changes in the <strong>C:\Kaseya\Services\KaseyaEdgeServices.config</strong> file on the KServer.</p> <p>Please follow the below steps to customize the cipher on the Kaseya server.</p> <p>1) Navigate to <strong><Kaseya installation directory>:\Kaseya\Services</strong><br>2) Backup the <strong>KaseyaEdgeServices.config</strong> file by renaming it something like <strong>KaseyaEdgeServices.config.OLD</strong><br>3) Copy the attached <strong>KaseyaEdgeServices.config</strong> file into the <strong>...\Kaseya\Services</strong> directory<br>4) Check the <strong>old KaseyaEdgeServices.config</strong> for any differences in the two files apart from the cipher list. There might also be additional commands denoting the status for TLS/SSL which you need to customize in the new config file as per requirement.<br>5) Restart the Windows Service called "<strong>Kaseya Edge Services</strong>" for the change to take effect. This will involve a down time of few minutes, so it is recommended to be done under a maintenance window of few minutes. <br>6) The same can be verified by checking your domain on <a rel="nofollow" href="/home/leaving?allowTrusted=1&target=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ssllabs.com%2Fssltest%2F">https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/</a></p> </article> </main>
