  We're running a network license server on a Windows machine and our security scanner is complaining that Ansys is using an unsupported certificate and is also using TLS 1.0. I'd like to be able to either ack these vulnerabilities with a "vendor says it's not an issue" or, perferably, fix them. Is there a way to use a signed cert for the Ansys license server? Is there a way to increase the TLS version to 1.2+?

  If you log onto the Customer Portal there's a section https://download.ansys.com/others/software_security_alerts with further details.

  Thanks for the link, that will definitely be helpful to know about moving forward. It looks like there are no entries there for TLS or certificate issues though. Is there any documentation for those?

  I can't comment beyond what's there, I'll kick the product team as it may be a recent issue that needs addressing.

  Not that I'm aware of. I'll remind the Forum managers.
