Field | Description |
---|---|
Output Field | Provide the field in which you want to store the Encrypted data. |
Algorithm Type | Encryption algorithm used to encrypt data. The available Algorithm Type are: AES, DES, Triple DES, Blowfish, RSA, PGP. |
Input Field | The field to be encrypted. |
Secret Key | Provide the fields and secret keys based on the selected key format. The charecter length of the key should be as follows: AES-16, DES-8, Triple DES-24, RSA- Generate Key pair, and provide encrypted value. |
Key Format | Format of the secret key, which is hexadecimal or Base64 encoded. It is important to encode the binary data to ensure it to be intact without modification when it is stored or transferred. This option is not available if Algorithm type is selected as RSA or PGP. |
