IBM Cryptographic Access Provider 128-bit for iSeries
(5722-AC3)
The Cryptographic Access Provider 128-bit for iSeries product (5722-AC3)
provides the support to secure on demand business transactions by
implementing the security needed to send proprietary or confidential information
over the Internet and corporate intranets. This product enables encryption in the
iSeries server for use by other products such as IBM HTTP Server for iSeries.
Install the Cryptographic Access Provider product on the iSeries server to enable
the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) function of the Hypertext Transfer Protocol
(HTTP) server.
The SSL protocol is widely used to enable secure communications between
servers and clients on the World Wide Web. Data transferred between the server
and client is encrypted to ensure the data remains private. In addition, the
identity of the server is authenticated by the client, through the use of a certificate
(or digital ID). Most popular Web browsers support SSL. This means that
SSL-enabled Web browsers can establish a secure communications session with
the iSeries server, where the browser authenticates the identity of the iSeries
server and the data transferred is encrypted.
Cryptographic Access Provider 128-bit supports 128-bit data encryption.
