• Encryption. Select an encryption algorithm, and enter the key in the field provided. For

3DES, the keys should be 24 ASCII characters, and for DES, the keys should be 8 ASCII

characters.

- DES. The Data Encryption Standard (DES) processes input data that is 64 bits wide,

encrypting these values using a 56-bit key. Faster but less secure than 3DES.

- 3DES. (Triple DES) achieves a higher level of security by encrypting the data three

times using DES with three different, unrelated keys.

• Authentication. Specify the authentication and the key.
