Static AES Key/Open System Authentication
The Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) was selected by National
Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in October 2000 as an up-
grade from the previous DES standard. AES uses a 128-bit block cipher
algorithm and encryption technique for protecting computerized infor-
mation. With the ability to use even larger 192-bit and 256-bit keys, if
necessary, it offers higher security against brute-force attack than the old
56-bit DES keys. For even greater security, you can select a 192-bit or 256-
bit key.
Once you have selected the options you will use, click Apply.
