Additional requirements for Arctera Insight Surveillance
IIS setting for processes on a single server
The default value
for the setting of Application Pool of the web application must not be changed so that Arctera Insight Surveillance functions properly while authenticating users.About Security Certificates
Surveillance generates self-signed certificates for Arctera Insight Surveillance web application during configuration time to ensure all endpoints are encrypted. It is encouraged to replace these with certificates signed by well-known authorities. For details, see the following article for details on how Enterprise Vault configures an SSL Certificate.

If you are accessing Arctera Insight Surveillance from a computer other than your Surveillance server, you need to import the certificate on that computer and add it to the Trusted Root Certification Authorities store. You also need to configure HTTPS.
Disabling unsafe cryptographic protocols and cipher suites
It is recommended to disable unsafe cryptographic protocols and cipher suites on the server to let users access Arctera Insight Surveillance without exposing your proxy server.
When a application device uses HTTPS to connect to Arctera Insight Surveillance on a proxy server, the application and server negotiate a common cryptographic protocol to secure the channel. If the application and server have multiple protocols in common, Internet Information Services (IIS) tries to secure the channel with one of the protocols that IIS supports. However, some protocols are stronger than others; to maximize the security of your environment, you may therefore want to disable the weak protocols in favor of stronger, Arctera-approved alternatives.
You can comply with Arctera recommendations by configuring the cryptographic protocols and cipher suites on your proxy server as follows:
Enable the TLS 1.2 protocols.
Disable the TLS 1.0 and 1.1, SSL 2.0 and 3.0 protocols.
Disable the RC2, RC4, and DES cipher suites.
