Per
Office of Management and Budget (OMB) mandate, the Treasury Department will be
implementing HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) headers on the Treasury.gov
website on Thursday, January 12 during an evening maintenance window. There is
no anticipated downtime associated with this change; however, the change affects
multiple domains and sub-domains, and will force users to the HTTPS site, as
opposed to allowing browsers to redirect from HTTP to HTTPS. This has the
potential to impact scripts that users may have developed to poll Treasury.gov
for data.
In
addition to this change, the Treasury Department will also be updating the HTTPS
cert it uses for the Treasury.gov domain during the aforementioned maintenance
window. Users may have to
reinstall the root certificate for the site if they experience connection
problems. The root certificate (the G3 certificate) can found at the following
URL:

Please
contact OFAC technical support at 1-800-540-6322 Option #8 or O_F_A_C@treasury.gov with any questions that you
may have about this change.
