Oracle Access Manager/Webgate reconfiguration needed by March 21, 2024 to avoid outage.

Affected Component(s): 

OAM Server and Webgates configured using SIMPLE mode 

Description:

Oracle Access Manager (OAM) installations that use the Out of the Box CA Signing Certificate, which expires in March 2024. If no action is taken, interruptions in service will be experienced.

• SIMPLE Mode for the Oracle Access Protocol (OAP) communication has will be deprecated as of March 2024

• SIMPLE Mode certificates cannot be renewed or regenerated

Solution: 

There are 2 possible solutions for 11g deployments:

 1. Change to certificate mode communications

 2. Change to open communication (This is inherently less secure and not recommended)

HCM can help you by reconfiguring OAM/WebGate communication configuration to use alternate modes to avoid any downtime.
