Fix Recommendation

At the command prompt, execute the following commands:

# /opt/vmware/vpostgres/current/bin/psql -U postgres -c "ALTER SYSTEM SET ssl_ciphers TO 'FIPS: +3DES:!aNULL';"
# /opt/vmware/vpostgres/current/bin/psql -U postgres -c "SELECT pg_reload_conf();"

Check Contents

At the command prompt, execute the following command:

# grep '^\s*ssl_ciphers\b' /storage/db/vcops/vpostgres/data/postgresql.conf

If "ssl_ciphers" is not set to "FIPS: +3DES:!aNULL", this is a finding.
