More information

Attribute	Description
Property name	glide.smtp.auth
Configuration type	System Properties (/sys_properties_list.do)
Configure in Instance Security Center	No
Purpose	Enforces SMTP Authentication
Recommended value	true
Functional impact	(High) This remediation enforces authentication to the external mail server before the content is delivered in the form of an email. If automation is set up to deliver email content, there may be an impact until you set the property and provide a relevant username/password for mail server access.
Security risk	(Low) Enable SMTP authentication before sending the content to the external mail server. Authentication should always take place before the transactions take place to/from to the instance.
