Version 9.4 of Dynamic Server supports encrypting data transmissions over the network using the encryption communication support module (ENCCSM).
This option provides complete data encryption with the openSSL library, with many configurable options. A message authentication code (MAC) will be transmitted as part of the encrypted data transmission to ensure data integrity. A MAC is an encrypted message digest.
The encryption algorithms use openSSL 0.9.6 as the code base.
Distributed queries can also be encrypted.
For more information on encryption, see the IBM Informix Dynamic Server Administrator's Guide.
Enterprise Replication implements encryption with configuration parameters instead of the ENCCSM. For more information, see Enterprise Replication Security.
