Rescheduled: Deprecation of Cipher Suites That Use SHA-1
Some NetSuite accounts are still using a cipher suite that uses the SHA-1 algorithm for secure communication with NetSuite. The cipher suites using the SHA1 algorithm are no longer considered secure. You should be using higher level cipher suites introduced with TLS 1.2. Cipher suites using the SHA-1 algorithm were originally targeted for deprecation in production accounts on January 28, 2020. We have rescheduled the cipher suite deprecation to Monday, February 10, 2020.
The following familiar items you may associate with SHA-1 are not affected by this deprecation:
- The SHA-1 used in request signatures for token-based authentication (TBA).
- The SHA-1 hashing function, and various types of signatures, such as those used in TBA or in the SuiteScript nlapiRequestURLWithCredentials function.
