Hello

Does anyone know of a way to disable this protocol, as it is a security risk. Any ideas and help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Kind regards

according to our internal security group, the ssl is of low encryption (ie 128-bit).

is there a way to increase the encryption?

Ok so ssl aint insecure, like you said but you want to make it more secure cause the encryption is not high enaugh in your opinion.
I thought you wanted to warn us about a security hazzard on the ssl protocol.
You need to request (from your CA) or buy a 256 bits certificate.
