[#1]

Article Number

000037265

Applies To

RSA Product Set: SecurID
RSA Product/Service Type: Authentication Manager SDK Java
RSA Version/Condition: 8.x

Issue

When running Authentication Manager SDK with Java code, one of the following errors are seen:
 

Jurisdiction policy files are not signed by the expected signer!

  or

Jurisdiction policy files are not signed by trusted signers!

 

Cause

These errors happen when Java version does not match with the version of policy files being used.



 

Resolution

The Java Cryptography Extension(JCE) files under <JRE>/lib/security/, should be replaced, and the new Java Cryptography Extension Unlimited Strength Jurisdiction Policy Files should match the version of Java version used.

You can determine the version of Java being used by typing the following at a command prompt:

java -version

Based on the value returned, download the correct file versions.

Notes

Some vendors have their own jurisdiction files, and the files must be replaced by the files from those specific vendors rather than the files provided by Oracle.
