WBSP-AS-001210 - The WebSphere Application Server must prohibit the use of cached authenticators after an organization-defined time period.

Information

When the application server is using PKI authentication, a local revocation cache must be stored for instances when the revocation cannot be authenticated through the network, but if cached authentication information is out of date, the validity of the authentication information may be questionable.

Solution

From the admin console, navigate to Security >> Global Security >> Authentication.

Click on 'Authentication cache' settings.

Enter the settings for 'Cache timeout' in accordance with the parameters defined in the Systems Security Plan.
