    We accept this RFE and currently we are investigating the feasibility. We will share more details once we complete the feasibility study.

    We also would like to extend the scope of the RFE to include the HATS Admin Console Session Fixation issue.

    Please note that the issue is not specific to HATS 9.7.0.2 version. Request you to remove the version number from the abstract of the RFE (IBM Idea)
