Description

A numeric value which specifies the cipher that was selected when establishing the secure connection.

One of the following values will be returned:

 

Constant

Description

SECURITY_CIPHER_RC2

The RC2 block cipher was selected. This is a variable key length cipher which supports keys between 40 and 128 bits, in 8-bit increments.

SECURITY_CIPHER_RC4

The RC4 stream cipher was selected. This is a variable key length cipher which supports keys between 40 and 128 bits, in 8-bit increments.

SECURITY_CIPHER_DES

The DES (Data Encryption Standard) block cipher was selected. This is a fixed key length cipher, using 56-bit keys.

SECURITY_CIPHER_DES3

The Triple DES block cipher was selected. This cipher encrypts the data three times using different keys, effectively providing a 168-bit length key.

SECURITY_CIPHER_SKIPJACK

The Skipjack block cipher was selected. This is a fixed key length cipher, using 80-bit keys.
