Cybersecurity Hardening the PXG
For added security, you should always disable HTTP access and enable HTTPS access for the gateway. To use
HTTPS to connect to the PXG, you'll need to:
Set either the local machine policy to allow users to manage certificates or, if multiple people in your
organization will access the PXG, set a group policy. You'll need assistance from your IT organization to set a
group policy.
Download the certificate file from the PXG.
Install the certificate in the Trusted Root Certification Authorities store. This is not the default store that the
certificate installation wizard will choose, which is why you need permission to manage certificates.
Both enabling user management for certificates and installing a certificate require administrative privileges for the
PC. If you don't have such privileges, you'll need to contact your IT organization for assistance before proceeding.
Enabling User Management of Root Certificates
The process for either enabling this on a local machine or setting a group policy is outlined in the following Microsoft
Technet Article:
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/Cc754841.aspx .
Essentially, you're going to enable the users to allow trusted root CAs to be used to validate certificates and to trust
peer trust certificates. You'll do this through MMC. If you're changing the local policy, you'll have policy settings for
certificate stores set as is shown in the following figure.
