Issue/Introduction

The Release from quarantine option in DLP Enforce console no longer works to release the quarantined item from SMG.

It was previously working before upgrading the systems.

In the Enforce Tomcat Localhost log file:

Time Stamp - Thread: 136 SEVERE [com.symantec.dlpx.flexresponse.emailquarantineconnect.EmailQuarantineConnectPlugin] javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: No appropriate protocol (protocol is disabled or cipher suites are inappropriate)
Cause:
com.symantec.dlpx.flexresponse.emailquarantineconnect.EmailQuarantineConnectException: javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: No appropriate protocol (protocol is disabled or cipher suites are inappropriate)com.symantec.dlpx.flexresponse.emailquarantineconnect.EmailQuarantineConnectException: javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: No appropriate protocol (protocol is disabled or cipher suites are inappropriate)

Environment

DLP  14.x  - 15.x and 16.x

SMG 10.6.3 version+

Cause

The TLS version for the Enforce to the SMG connection is not supported on SMG.  The Enforce email quarantine configuration files need to be modified to use  the appropriate settings 

Resolution

Modify the configuration files for flex response to use TLS version 1.2 and/or ciphers in the following three files:

  • EmailQuarantineConnectApproved.properties
  • EmailQuarantineConnectCustom.properties
  • EmailQuarantineConnectRejected.properties

Note: These files are located in <drive>:\SymantecDLP\Protect\plugins

The setting "ssl-protocol-version = TLSv1" should be changed to "ssl-protocol-version = TLSv1.2"

Save the files and restart DLP Enforce services in the correct order
