Frequently asked questions and solutions
Q: How are passwords encrypted and which cryptographic algorithm is used for encryption?
A: If SSO integration is used to access the portal, user passwords are stored in the external SSO IdP. Otherwise, passwords are stored in Oracle encrypted AES128.
Q: What are the idle and absolute session timeout values?
A: Default idle session timeout is 15 days, but can be customized by the administrator.
Q: How is the user session managed?
A: A user session is managed using cookies.
Q: How is the Oracle DB password encrypted in the flat files? Is there any data in transit encrypted?
A: If Oracle and portal are installed on separate servers, the administrator can configure that connection to use TLS to encrypt that connection. When Oracle and portal are installed on the same server, the data is not encrypted between the Portal and Oracle.
