    Group
  • The IPsec VPN Gateway IKE must use NIST FIPS-validated cryptography to implement encryption services for unclassified VPN traffic.

    &lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;Use of weak or untested encryption algorithms undermines the purposes of utilizing encryption to protect data. The VPN gatewa...
