2.1 Security Enforcement/ Hardening

In this release, TLS 1.2 support for network connection between TCP Gateway on open system and CICS/IMS on Mainframe are added. Network connections between TCP Gateways and TMA TCP IMSs support SSL/TLS.

The following section describes the TLS support functionality:
From To Supported Protocol
TCP Gateway TCP CICS no-TLS, two-way TLS
TCP Gateway TCP IMS no-TLS, one-way TLS
TCP CICS TCP Gateway no-TLS, two-way TLS
TCP IMS TCP Gateway no-TLS, one-way TLS
By default, supported cipher suites include:
  • TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA256
  • TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384
  • TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA256
  • TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256
  • TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384
  • TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256
  • TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256
