If LTPA is not utilized, this is not applicable. Request the documented process to manually regenerate the LTPA keys. The time period for regeneration must be defined, documented, and accepted by the ISSO but must be performed at least annually. Navigate to Security >> SSL Certificate and Key Management >> Key set groups >> Cell LTPAKeySetGroup. If automatically generate keys is checked, this is a finding.

Fix Text (F-59499r876939_fix)

Navigate to Security >> SSL Certificate and Key Management >> Key set groups >> Cell LTPAKeySetGroup. Uncheck automatically generate keys. Click "OK". Click "Save". Restart the "Deployment Manager".
