Clarification needed on some of the prconfig security settings.
Hello All,
Currently, We are in a process of implementing "prconfig security settings" . While doing so, we had doubts on some specific settings. Could anyone please provide some clarification on those.
PFA the pdf document about the doubtfull settings and the corresponding questions.
Infra : Pega Cloud 8.2.3
We have used below link to compare the security settings with the prconfig and DSS settings available in our infra.

Hi KingShuk,
I would suggest opening an SR to have these settings reviewed in the context of your questions. Once you open an SR, please respond here with the SR number.

We're not on PEGA cloud and we validated security requirements with below setup on 7.3.1
<env name="authentication/trojanhorseprotection/default" value="1"/>
<env name="HTTP/UseNoCacheHeaders" value="true"/>
<env name="cookie/HttpOnly" value="true"/>
<env name="HTTP/SetSecureCookie" value="false"/>
<env name="initialization/DisplayExceptionTraceback" value="false"/>
<env name="initialization/ErrorOnInvalidThreadName" value="true"/>
<env name="initialization/DisableAutoComplete" value="true"/>
<env name="initialization/PromoteEmbeddedPortals" value="true"/>
Our Pega apps are internal and not Internet exposed.
SetSecureCookie to true was creating issue on our side, so we kept it to False.
If this can help...

If I remember well, application was not coming up with SetSecureCookie on true
I think that you need to be 100% https to use this param on True (to be confirmed)
You could either directly try it with True and see what's happening or keep this one on False while you play with other params. When you've found a setup fine for you, then turn this last one to True.

Hi,
If SetSecureCookie is enabled and you try to access the Pega Application via http://... you will fail. This setting forces you to access only via https://...
