Secure Communication Between IQService and UpdateService

TLS Communication and Client Authentication between IQService and UpdateService must be configured to completely secure this solution.

  • TLS Communication between IQService and UpdateService is supported and must be configured to secure this communication channel.

    Note
    Certificate based client authentication is not mandatory for TLS communication.

  • For Client Authentication, UpdateService supports authenticating a client connecting to it. This authenticates every incoming request from IQService before executing those requests. To ensure the authentication works correctly, UpdateService expects the client (IQService here) to send, with every request, a client certificate of the trusted client that is already registered with UpdateService.

    Note
    To enable certificate based client authentication between IQService and UpdateService, it needs to be explicitly configured. For more information on configuration, refer to Configuring TLS and Certificate-Based Client Authentication for UpdateService.
