 The Enterprise File Fabric product’s cryptographic module has been validated by a third-party, as conforming to the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) algorithm. The validation registration is [No. 4854](https://csrc.nist.gov/Projects/Cryptographic-Algorithm-Validation-Program/Validation/Validation-List/AES%234854). (#cmnt6)The AES algorithm, as specified in [Federal Information Processing Standard Publication 197, Advanced Encryption Standard](https://csrc.nist.gov/publications/detail/fips/197/final) (FIPS PUB 197), is used to protect electronic data. It is a symmetric block cipher that can encrypt and decrypt information with cryptographic keys. Storage Made Easy uses 256-bit keys (AES-256). AES is mandatory for electronic products and services provided to the federal government. It is also required by other highly secure organizations. The Enterprise File Fabric product’s cryptographic module has been validated by a third-party, as conforming to the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) algorithm.
