Adjust Security Protocols

By default, MATLAB® Production Server™ instances try to use TLSv1.2 to secure connections between client and server. It will allow connections using SSLv2, SSLv3, and TLSv1. You control the enabled protocols using the --ssl-protocols property. This property specifies the protocols the server instance can use.

To disable SSLv2 and SSLv3 protocols, add this configuration excerpt:

--ssl-protocols TLSv1

Because SSLv2 and SSLv3 are not included in the list, the server instance does not enable the protocols.

You can restrict the cipher suites used by the server instance with the ssl-ciphers property. After you add the property to a server instance’s configuration, the server instance will use only the listed cipher suites.

To enable only high strength cipher suites, you add this configuration excerpt:

--ssl-ciphers HIGH
