Encrypt definition

Encrypt means to encode Confidential Information into a format that can only be read by those possessing a “key;” a password, digital certificate or other mechanism available only to authorized users. Encryption must use a key length of at least 256 bits for symmetric keys, or 2048 bits for asymmetric keys. When a symmetric key is used, the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) must be used if available.

Encryption must use a key length of at least 256 bits for symmetric keys, or 2048 bits for asymmetric keys. When a symmetric key is used, the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) must be used if available.

Encrypt means to use an algorithmic process to transform data into a form in which there is a low probability of assigning meaning without use of a confidential process or key, which process conforms to NIST Special Publications 800–111, 800–52, 800–77, or 800–113, as appropriate, or that is otherwise validated against the Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) 140–2.

Examples of Encrypt in a sentence

• Encrypt user passwords in any data storage location and obfuscate password entry fields in any entry interface controlled by the discloser.

• Encrypt portable computer devices, such as laptops and notebook computers that process and/or store Medi-Cal PII, with a solution using a vendor product that is recognized as an industry leader in meeting the needs for the intended solution.

• Encrypt all electronic files that contain Medi-Cal PII when the file is stored on any removable media type device (i.e. USB thumb drives, floppies, CD/DVD, etc.) using a vendor product that is recognized as an industry leader in meeting the needs for the intended solution, such as products specified on the CSSI.

• Encrypt workstations where Medi-Cal PII is stored using a vendor product that is recognized as an industry leader in meeting the needs for the intended solution, such as products specified on the CSSI.

• Provider must Encrypt Student Data and APPR Data at rest and in transit in accordance with applicable New York laws and regulations.
