RE: 3DES [7:34756]

2002-02-08 Thread Evans, TJ

I heard it put very well, and wish I could attribute it but I don't recall
the source:
To paraphrase, it goes something like this:
  
Think of what it is your company makes, does or sells ... or is planning on
doing so in the future.
... and how it makes it and/or does it, how much it costs to do so, etc.
... and who it sells it to ... and for how much .. and where this money goes

Think of what differentiates you from your competitors .. quality, quantity,
unique products/information/processes, etc.
Now think of what would happen to your company if your competition
knew all of this.




Granted - you can argue that this oversimplifies things a little bit, but it
makes a point that will readily hit home with management if nothing else!
Thanks!
TJ
... just because you are paranoid doesn't mean they aren't out to get you.

Re: 3DES [7:34756]

2002-02-08 Thread Craig Columbus

A couple of questions regarding the original post and then some comments:

It was unclear to me from the original post why you need the DES/3DES.  Are 
you running end user VPN clients?  Router-router tunnels?  You need to 
consider the purpose of the encryption and the information it's intended to 
guard before deciding on the level.  I've got some clients (law enforcement 
agencies, brokerage firms, etc.) where I don't take any comfort from 
3DES.  On the other hand, I've got some small business clients that use 
encryption for interoffice links that transfer non-sensitive/low sensitive 
information.  For these guys, DES is plenty.

RE: 3DES [7:34756]

2002-02-08 Thread Brian Zeitz

We deal with interfacing Alarm systems, both fire and security. 3Des
would be needed so someone would have a hard time tripping alarms via
the internet. I don't want to get out of bed at 3am, along with a lot of
other people, fire, police, owners etc. Also we are writing Code, which
programmers spend hours/days/weeks on. And we are getting patents, and
writing code for the hardware. I think security is going to be much more
important as time goes on. I am the extreme paranoid type, so I would
rather take the safe route every time. I think if Enron had some
hackers, and they deleted some data, it would only be doing them a favor
at this point.

I'm not sure when Cisco will incorporate AES, but it is already used in SSH2
and other products (can't think of any others of the top of my head). In
fact, my company incorporates in AES into a client-server solution we offer.
I've only read and heard good things about AES.
