RM Unify AD Sync

There is an important update regarding RM Unify AD Sync and upcoming changes from Microsoft that may impact your service.

Microsoft Azure are ending support for Transport Layer Security (TLS) 1.0 and 1.1 ending 31st October 2024. For more information, please read the blog from Microsoft:

https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/updates/azure-support-tls-will-end-by-31-october-2024-2/

This change directly affects how the RM Unify AD Sync service communicates with RM Unify. Without action, RM Unify AD sync may stop providing user updates to RM Unify and other services, for example, RM SafetyNet.

Action Required:

You will need to run an application on your server to force a minimum version of TLS 1.2 in advance of the deadline imposed by Microsoft on 31st October 2024. Please follow the link to this RM article for instructions to install the update on your server:
