4.6.1.3 TLS 1.0
Now verify that Internet Explorer has TLS 1.0 Enabled (a government requirement to satisfy FIPS
140-2 encryption)
• Launch Internet Explorer
• click on Tools>Internet Options
• Click on the ‘Advanced’ tab and verify that TLS 1.0 is checked (by default IE 6 does not have
TLS 1.0 enabled, while IE 7 does)
• If TLS 1.0 is not checked, check it and then restart IE
4.6.1.4 Binary and Script Behavior
E-CollabCenter does NOT require ActiveX to run. The IBM Sametime development team removed all
ActiveX dependencies from its product in version 7.0; consequently, Sametime 7.5.1 FIPS does not use
ActiveX. In an effort to avoid 3rd party litigation, Microsoft added the binary and scripting behavior set to
control Internet Explorer (IE) running embedded user interface controls such as Java applets. Sametime
uses Java Applets for web conferencing. There are two options in Internet Explorer to allow Sametime's
use of Java - either add the Sametime URLs as a trusted site or set Binary and Script Behavior to
'enable'.
