A key agreement algorithm that does key establishment, not encryption.
However, the key it produces may be used for encryption, for further key
management, or any other cryptography.
A certificate document in the form of a digital data object to which is
appended a computed digital signature value that depends on the data object.
An identifier that uniquely represents an object in the X.500 Directory
Information Tree. An X.509 public-key certificate or CRL contains a DN that
identifies its issuer, and attribute certificate identifies its subject.
A general purpose distributed, replicated, data query service used to look up
host IP addresses based on host names. DNS applications can perform
name-to-address and address-to-name translations.
Routes that are learned via the switch's RIP support, and are used for branch
office connections and the private interface.
The manipulation of a packet's data to prevent any but the intended recipient
from reading the data.
A public-key certificate that contains a public key that is intended to be used
for encrypting data, rather than for verifying digital signatures or performing
other cryptographic functions.
Technical guidelines for U.S. Government procurements of information
processing system equipment and services.
A TCP-based application layer Internet Standard protocol that transfers files
to and from a remote host.
