Bosch IoT Device Management - will be discontinued by mid 2024

2022-01-17 - Bosch IoT Suite Portal and Authorization news

Bosch IoT Suite Portal and Authorization will drop support for TLS 1.0 and 1.1 and of weak cipher suites.

At the moment, Bosch IoT Suite Portal and Authorization still supports the TLS versions 1.0 and 1.1.
Our goal is to always offer an up-to-date and secure service. However, the TLS versions 1.0 and 1.1 have been considered insecure. (IANA)

Consequences

If your devices, applications or user-agents still use the TLS version 1.0 or 1.1, they will no longer be able to connect to Bosch IoT Suite Portal and Authorization from 01.03.2022.

As a customer having a paid plan §15.3 Changes of the Service and the Terms and Conditions of the SaaS Terms and Conditions applies : “[…] If Customer does not object within 30 days of receipt of the notification and continues to use the Service after expiry of the period for objection, then the changes shall be deemed to have been effectively agreed as from the expiry date of the time limit. In the event of an objection, the contractual relationship shall be continued subject to the conditions applying hitherto. If an objection is raised, Provider is entitled to terminate the contractual relationship subject to a one (1) month’ notice period.”

The following domains are affected by the change:

  • Bosch IoT Suite Portal: accounts.bosch-iot-suite.com

  • Bosch IoT Suite Authorization: access.bosch-iot-suite.com

  • Bosch IoT Suite Status Dashboard: status.bosch-iot-suite.com

Our API will only support the following cipher suites and therefore only TLS 1.2 or higher:

  • TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256

  • TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA256

  • TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384

  • TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA384

  • TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256

  • TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA256

  • TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384
