QWS3270 Secure allows you to turn SSL security on or off, and set different levels of security.
NEW in 5.0 - SSL and TLS options can now be disabled through hidden Session Parameters.
The hidden session parameters file can be found in the following path: C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Roaming\Jolly Giant Software\QWS3270 Secure\QWS3270S.jgp
Add the below lines to that file to hide that respective security option.
- DisableSSLv2=1 - disables the option to use SSLv2
- DisableSSLv3=1 - disables the option to use SSLv3
- DisableTLSv1=1 - disables the option to use TLSv1
Enable/Disable Secure Connection - This option turns SSL on or off. You will want to turn it off if you need QWS3270 Secure to connect to a host that does not support the SSL protocol.
SSL Protocol Version - Specify to use either the SSL protocol, the TLS protocol, or let the program automatically select the best option. TLSv1 supports the following TLS versions: 1.0, 1.1, and 1.2.
Minimum Cipher Strength - Select the minimum cipher strength used when negotiating the SSL connection with the host. The selected strength will be the minimum the host and the client use to encrypt their communication. It may not necessarily be the actual cipher strength used. The server and client will negotiate the actual encryption routine to be used.
Note that the actual number of cipher strength points shown on the slider in the above dialog may vary depending on Operating System.
...
Client Certificate - Select the client certificate to present to the server if required. The presented certificates will be chosen from the Windows certificate store.
**New in 5.0** - SECURE ONLY - Enhanced Certificate Viewer - When choosing a Certificate on the Security section of the Session Options dialog, you will now be presented with an Windows OS specific certificate chooser. This provides more information making it easier to choose from multiple similar certificates.
