IntroductionFeature OverviewOracle Taleo is deprecating the use of the SHA-1 hashing function. As part of this project, the Oracle Taleo zone certificate will beupgraded to SHA-2, replacing the current SHA-1 certificate. Accordingly the TCC client must be updated to utilize a SHA-2 certificate.AudienceThis guide is intended for customers who are using Taleo Connect Client (TCC) to integrate with their instance of Oracle TaleoEnterprise Edition Cloud Service.SINGLE SIGN-ON AND ORACLE TALEO ENTERPRISE PRODUCTS
Update of the Taleo certificates to SHA-2The Oracle Taleo zone certificate will be updated to be signed using the SHA-2 method. The endpoint URL used by TCC for zoneaccess remains unchanged, only the certificate that secures the communication will be updated.Integration scripts are not affected by the new certificate but a new version of TCC is needed to be able to connect to the Taleo zone.Data import and export features remain the same and are unaffected by this change.RequirementsTaleo Connect Client version 15A.2 supports SHA-2. It is mandatory that customers migrate to this version. It is available for downloadfrom Oracle e-Delivery site.https://edelivery.oracle.comThe version will show this in the ‘About Taleo Connect Client’ screen:SINGLE SIGN-ON AND ORACLE TALEO ENTERPRISE PRODUCTS
MigrationTCC integration relies on PIP files that must be kept in synch with the customer’s Oracle Taleo zone version. Migrating to the newTCC version to support SHA-2 does not require changing the PIP files. Only the TCC engine must be updated.Although no impact is expected to existing scripts/integrations, reference the TCC support policy as outlined in the TCC user guide,available via OTN.In an environment that already has a TCC installed, installing a new TCC can potentially require some changes. Examples are: Customer’s TCC configuration files refer to version-dependant TCC pathsReferences to the new version in the customer’s environmentTimeline and dependenciesThe new SHA-2 certificate will begin to be deployed to the Oracle Taleo zones starting on September of 2016. Customers must havemigrated to the SHA-2 compatible TCC version before that date to ensure continuity of service.Next StepsCustomers with TCC integration must migrate to TCC 15A.2.Additional Information For additional information or questions about this document, please submit a Service Request (SR) via My Oracle Support(MOS).
