IBM Cryptographic Access Provider 128-bit for iSeries (5722-AC3)
The Cryptographic Access Provider products provide the support to secure e-business
transactions by implementing the security needed to send proprietary or confidential
information over the Internet and corporate intranets. They enable encryption in the iSeries
server for use by other products such as HTTP Server for iSeries. Install one of these
Cryptographic Access Provider products on the iSeries server to enable the secure sockets
layer (SSL) function of the HTTP Server for iSeries.
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.
