Three
Methods of Encryption |
| |
Newbie Encryption |
|
| |
 |
Newbie Encryption is the default encryption method used
to encrypt and protect information stored in the Parameters
Database. It uses the Blowfish Encryption Algorithm, a
64-bit block cipher (data is encrypted and decrypted in
64-bit chunks) with key lengths of 32 to 448 bits. Blowfish
was designed by Bruce Schneier and is used in over 150
products to date. Visit his website
to find out more information.
To setup the method of encryption, go to the Tools
Menu->Encryption Configuration. |

Custom
Encryption |
|
| |
 |
Custom Encryption is an encryption method that allows
Newbie users to implement their own proprietary functions
to encrypt information stored in the Parameters Database.
Users who are familiar with creating API functions in
C, Java, Visual Basic, Delphi and other high level programming
languages can create API functions that Newbie can use
to encrypt data. |
| |
Double
Encryption |
|
| |
 |
Double Encryption is a combination of Newbie and Custom
Encryption. Information stored in the Parameters Database
is always encrypted twice using both encryption implementations.
This is the preferred method to use as it makes it doubly
harder to decipher data.
