Public Key Cryptography Standard Number 7.
Public Key Cryptography Standard Number 12. A format for storing digital

public-key infrastructure. A system of certification authorities (CAs) and
registration authorities (RAs) that provides support for the use of asymmetric
key cryptography in data communication through such functions as certificate
management, archive management, key management, and token management.
Alternatively, any standard for the exchange of asymmetric keys.
This type of exchange allows the recipient of a message to trust the signature in
that message, and allows the sender of a message to encrypt it appropriately for
the intended recipient. See key management.
Ordinary, unencrypted data.
The rate of bits per second that traffic must not exceed.
Traffic policing propagates bursts. When the traffic rate reaches the configured
maximum rate, excess traffic is dropped, or remarked.
A policy map consists of configured actions to be taken on traffic. Traffic is
defined in a class map. More than one class map can be associated with a policy
map.
Post Office Protocol version 3. A protocol used to retrieve e-mail from an e-mail

NAD to report on the host's compliance with the network security policy.
Point-to-Point Protocol. A protocol that provides router-to-router, and
host-to-network connections over synchronous and asynchronous circuits. PPP
has built in security mechanisms, such as CHAP and PAP.
