Cause

There is a problem with the client and server certificates.
 

Resolution

The process to resolve this error is to generate a new root (server) certificate, a new client certificate for every remote agent and AFX server, redeploy the newly generated certificates and and restart RSA Identity Governance & Lifecycle, the remote agent and AFX.

For steps to do this, please see RSA Knowledge Base Article 000038314 -- How to update the root (server) and client certificates in RSA Identity Governance & Lifecycle.
 

Notes

Note that when changing the server certificate, if you use AFX you will need to redeploy the certificate for AFX as well. Instructions for doing so are also in RSA Knowledge Base Article 000038314 -- How to update the root (server) and client certificates in RSA Identity Governance & Lifecycle
