Do not use Microsoft Internet Explorer. If upgrade is not an option, administrators should regularly audit the AF hierarchy to ensure there are no unexpected or unknown elements, attributes, or attribute properties. It is recommended security on elements in AF be configured and enforced in addition to configuring PI point security.
