Rob,
First, thanks for the heads up.
I use Firefox almost exclusively, though of course I do have Edge and Chrome
installed. Anyway, I have FF configured to notify me whenever an update is
available so, I think, I am up-to-date. Cannot remember when the last time
it downloaded an update, but I do not recall being asked about the ciphers.
Though knowing me I may have just accepted without reading critically.
So I was wondering if this change to the ciphers was part of a regular FF
update or a one-off that has to be manually/specially invoked?
Again, thanks.

Subject: [PCTECH] All major browsers have been updated to drop older
ciphers.
Apparently there was a big push out there and Bing, Chrome and Firefox have
dropped older ciphers.
Firefox at least asks us if we want to use the older ciphers but they plan
on dropping them completely soon.
We REALLY need to move our IBM Secure Identity Manager upgrade to the top of
our list...
