Abbreviation for “Internet Protocol Security.” Standard for securing IP communications at the network layer by encrypting and/or authenticating all IP packets in a communication session.

  IPSec provides security for transmission of sensitive information over unprotected networks such as the Internet. IPSec acts at the network layer, protecting and authenticating IP packets between pa [..]

IP Security

Internet Glossary Short for IP Security, a set of protocols being developed by the IETF to support secure exchange of packets at the IP layer. Once it's completed, IPsec is expected to be deployed widely to implement Virtual Private Networks (VPNs).IPsec supports two encryption modes: Transport and Tunnel. Transport mode encrypts only the data [..]

Internet Protocol Security. A set of protocols that provide authentication and encryption to Internet Protocol (IP) packets, adding an extra layer of security on IP communications.

A protocol suite used by VPN connections to secure Internet Protocol (IP) communications. IPSec protects data flows between a pair of hosts (e.g. computer users or servers), between a pair of security gateways (e.g. routers or firewalls), or between a security gateway and a host.

IPSEC is the leading Virtual Private Networking (VPN

A protocol that underlies other Internet packet protocols such as UDP (User Datagram Protocol) and TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol) to provide encryption. Sometimes the encrypt [..]

IPSec (short for IP Security) is a group of related protocols for negotiating encryption and authentication at the IP (host-to-host) level. IPSec is a security extension of IPv4 and a requirement for [..]

Short for “IP security”; a group of protocols that were developed by the Internet Engineering Task Force for the purpose of supporting exchange of data packets at the IP level. IPSec is an essential component of VPNs. It provides two types of encryption: transport and tunnel. The transport mode encrypts only the payload and not the header. The more [..]

IPsec provides interoperable, high quality and cryptographically based security services for traffic at the IP layer, such as authenticity, integrity, confidentiality and access control to each IP packet.

Internet Protocol Security. The IETF has proposed IPSec as a set of protocols and procedures for securing IP packet traffic on publicly accessible IP networks. IPSec supports several cipher algorithms, and enables both payload authentication and encryption.
