HCL SafeLinx 1.1.1 & HTTP Strict-Transport-Security

After a SafeLinx Deployment I wanted to set the HTTP Strict-Transport-Security header, but there was nothing in the documentation about it, and I also could not find any option regarding this in the SafeLinx Administrator client settings. So I opened a Support case.

According to the support you can use the command line on the HCL SafeLinx server to set the HTTP Strict-Transport-Security header as well as any other token header. Example of the command:

chwg -s ibm-wlHttpService -l http-serviceX -a hcl-strictTransSec=TRUE -a hcl-httptokens=”MyToken: my value” -a hcl-httptokens=”MyTOken2: my value2″

As of the upcoming HCL SafeLinx 1.1.1 release, which is coming next week, there is going to be a form to set it in the HCL SafeLinx Administrator client. Also, the HTTP Strict-Transport-Security header will be enabled by default in this release. Yay! 🙂
