Etc.
If that's "roll your own" cryptography, then how do you use Pervasive
Encryption without "rolling your own" cryptography?
You must have keying material, and I'd be flabbergasted if IBM shipped
said keying material with the system.
You have to transfer that keying material between systems you want to
communicate.
How do you avoid "rolling your own" cryptography when you make the
investment and create the aforementioned SFTP server?
