From the product files list, the certificate file OfcIPCer.dat may not be getting updated.
To fix this issue, follow the steps in Configuring Apex One to use a certificate signed by corporate Certificate Authority . These set of instructions will deploy the certificate.
If the issue persists after the actions above, please collect the new CDT from both the Apex One server and the endpoint when doing a manual update at the agent side.
