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 AS/400
system for use by other products such as HTTP Server for AS/400. One of these
Cryptographic Access Provider products must be installed on the AS/400 system to enable
the secure sockets layer (SSL) function of the HTTP Server for AS/400. SSL is used to
enable sensitive online transactions to be performed by providing end-to-end security.
SSL is a security protocol that 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 AS/400 system, where the browser authenticates the
identity of the AS/400 system and the data transferred is encrypted.
Cryptographic Access Provider 128-bit for AS/400 (5769-AC3) supports 128-bit data
encryption capability and cannot be exported outside the USA and Canada except to
selected customers who meet certain standards set by the United States Government.
Cryptographic Access Provider 40-bit for AS/400 (5769-AC1) supports 40-bit data encryption
and is not restricted to the USA and Canada. Cryptographic Access Provider 56-bit for
AS/400 (5769-AC2) supports 56-bit data encryption. It is also not restricted to the USA and
Canada.
When Firewall for AS/400 is used in conjunction with the HTTP Server for AS/400 and one of
the Cryptographic Access Providers products, AS/400 systems attached to the Internet can
send and receive information from Internet users in a secure fashion. The firewall prohibits
unwanted traffic from entering a secure network while the Cryptographic Access Provider
encrypts data exchanged over the Internet.
