What is ipsec?

(IP SECurity) A security protocol from the IETF that provides authentication and encryption over the Internet. Unlike SSL, which provides services at layer 4 and secures two applications, IPsec works at layer 3 and secures everything in the network. Also unlike SSL, which is typically built into the Web browser, IPsec requires a client installation. IPsec can access both Web and non-Web applications, whereas SSL requires workarounds for non-Web access such as file sharing and backup. IPsec is supported by IPv6. Since IPsec was designed for the IP protocol, it has wide industry support and is expected to become the standard for virtual private networks (VPNs) on the Internet.


What are some benefits of utilizing IPsec services?

IPSec is an internet security protocol. The protocol is used to ensure private and secure communications over Internet Protocol networks. Defense is provided for network based attacks, corruption and theft of data, and takeover of computer administrative properties.

What is IPSec group?

The Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF)'s IP Security Protocol (IPSec) working group is defining a set of specifications for cryptographically-based authentication, integrity, and confidentiality services at the IP datagram layer. IPSec is intended to be the future standard for secure communications on the Internet, but is already the de facto standard. The IPSec group's results comprise a basis for interoperably secured host-to-host pipes, encapsulated tunnels, and Virtual Private Networks (VPNs), thus providing protection for client protocols residing above the IP layer.

What are Example of ipsec encryption modes?

There are two modes for IPSec. Transport mode and Tunnel mode. Transport mode is for securing end-to-end communication between two computers and tunnel mode is for securing gateway-to-gateway communication.
