Configuring Java Encryption

The Bouncy Castle and unlimited strength JCE policy files add the encryption algorithms required by Infor for single sign-on.

During the Infor Lawson installation, you will select the algorithms you want to use. However, not all algorithms are compatible with all versions of JDK. If you select an incompatible algorithm during the installation, an error message will prompt you to choose a different algorithm.

If you need to install an update to the Java or WebSphere-delivered JDK, you can use this procedure to manually reconfigure encryption.

Note: Bouncy Castle is added to all JDKs used by the Lawson system before you install any Lawson products. Repeat the steps below for all JDKs consumed by the Lawson system, for example:
  • The JDK defined as LAW_JAVA_HOME on the Infor Lawson server.

  • The JDK delivered with and used by the application server.

  • Any JDKs consumed by other Infor products that use single sign-on via the Distributed SSO solution (for example, Infor Lawson Business Intelligence (LBI) applications such as Smart Notification and Framework Services).
