Looks like a BC upgrade will fix the NPE. But possibly something downstream will still fail... Just to add my 2 cents here : Per the problem posed in the very first email, we see the SSL/TLS issue between Oracle JDK 8 and Tomcat 8.5 Environment: OS: CentOS 7 Apache: apache-tomcat-8.5.65 Java: jdk1.8.0_281 Note that the following link - talks about issues between OpenJDK 11 and BC. https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8216039. This morning's suggestion (about changing from "sslProtocol" to "protocols" ) from Christopher Schultz, sounds promising, in that the interaction between the Browser-clients and Tomcat 8.5.x server, will be limited only to TLS1.2 Making this change, will preclude other old protocols - like TLS 1, TLS 11 etc in communication between the clients and the Tomcat server. We will need tests after making the change to "protocols" attribute in the HTTPS connector block. In context of the above mentioned change -we may not need any editing of "java.security" file contents (discussed last evening).
