Question 1
A financial services firm is deploying HCL DX 9.5 in a Kubernetes cluster. The security team mandates that all communication between the DX Core pods and the backend database must be encrypted using TLS. During a security audit, it's discovered that while the database server requires TLS, the DX JDBC connection is not configured to enforce it, potentially allowing unencrypted connections. Which parameter in the datasources- Jdbc.xml configuration file must be set to true to ensure the connection is secure?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: B
The sslConnection property within the tag for a specific JDBC data source in datasources-Jdbc.xml is the correct parameter. Setting true instructs the JDBC driver to establish a secure, encrypted connection to the database, fulfilling the TLS requirement. The other options are plausible but incorrect property names for this specific configuration context.
