Which Encryption Algorithms Are Used?

In Advanced Encryption Mode, CA DataMinder uses these encryption algorithms:

• Data Transfers: Sensitive data sent across the network between CA DataMinder machines is encrypted with TLS, using AES 128-bit as the symmetric cipher algorithm.
• Captured data: Blob files (binary large objects) containing captured data are encrypted using AES 128-bit as the symmetric cipher algorithm. They are saved in the CMS data store.
• Local encryption keys: These keys, used to encrypt captured data and policy data, are themselves encrypted with a master key using the 3DES (Triple Data Encryption Standard) algorithm.
