To encipher or decipher data or keys, ICSF uses either the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Data Encryption Standard (DES) algorithm or the Commercial Data Masking Facility (CDMF). The DES algorithm is documented in Federal Information Processing Standard #46. CDMF provides DES cryptography using an effectively shortened DATA key. See System Encryption Algorithm for more information. To encipher or decipher data, ICSF also uses the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) algorithm. The AES algorithm is documented in Federal Information Processing Standard 197. ICSF enciphers and deciphers using several modes of operation. Some of the modes have variations related to padding or blocking of the data. The text in parentheses is the processing rule associated with that mode. The supported modes are:
