    Hi Support,

    How to secure communication only in HTTPS between Bigfix agent and Bigfix server or Relay ?

    I mean the flux number "F" in this chart : https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/license-metric-tool?topic=security-flow-data

    Thanks

    Guillaume

    Hi, BigFix uses Self-signed SSL certificates generated from their own trust chain for the server and relays, rather than certificates that are rooted in a common certificate authority. BigFix communications between the BigFix Root Server and the BigFix Clients /Relays are already secured.

    Please, refer to following knowledge article:
