Information on GSS encryption algorithm

Products

• Ghost Solution Suite

Issue/Introduction

What kind of encryption algorithm is used by Ghost Solution Suite (GSS) for communication between the agent and GSS Server?

Could you also please provide a description of the encryption used for file/database encrypted strings such as passwords?

Environment

GSS 3.3

Resolution

For encryption between the agents and the GSS server, we are using AES-CBC-256.

Regarding the encryption used for file/database encrypted strings such as passwords:
we use AES-CBC-256 is used for password encryption

For communication encryption, there is a custom implementation of public-key cryptography based on ElGamal algorithm.
