Quality of Protection

Quality of Protection (QoP) is the degree to which Verify Identity Access protects any information that is transmitted between a client and a server.

The quality of data protection is determined by the combined effect of encryption standards and modification-detection algorithms. The resource manager is responsible for ensuring that the quality of data protection is enforced.

Verify Identity Access supports the following levels of Quality of Protection:
  • Standard Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) communication (no protection)
  • Data integrity protects messages (data stream) from being modified during network communication
  • Data privacy protects messages from being modified or inspected during network communication
