Description
Are credentials sent securely between Foglight Management Server (FMS) and Foglight Agent Manager (FglAM)?
-
Resolution
Credentials are encrypted when they are transmitted from the FMS to FglAM. The FglAM Adapter establishes a Key Exchange (Diffie-Hellman) with each connecting FglAM client. The negotiated key, that is generated from this exchange is used to encrypt the credential data, when it is being transmitted to FglAM.
This exchange occurs regardless of whether the communication protocol is HTTP or HTTPS.
