PsypherEDI

PsypherEDI provides a proprietary security envelope for transaction files. When the same security product can be used by both the sender and the receiver, PsypherEDI may be all you need to protect all types of sensitive business transaction files.

PsypherEDI consists of two main components: an interactive menu-driven utility to manage a trading partner database of encrypted keys and security options, and a script/batch component to automatically secure transaction files on a regularly scheduled basis.

For files being transferred from one location to another, PsypherEDI provides any combination of four separate options:

Data Encryption
PsypherEDI provides confidentiality using a variety of strong encryption algorithms (56-bit DES, 112-bit Triple DES, 160-bit Blowfish, and 256-bit AES). PsypherEDI can access computer hardware features such as IBM's 4758 Cryptographic Coprocessor Card on PCs or Integrated Cryptographic Service Facility (ICSF) on mainframes for improved performance and maximum security for key management.

Message Authentication
PsypherEDI verifies the origin of the transmitted file and its integrity using X9.19 Message Authentication Codes (MACs) or RSA digital signatures.

Data Compression
PsypherEDI saves transmission time and money by compressing data using the popular X9.32 compression algorithm (also known as LZW compression).

Text/Data Control
When necessary, PsypherEDI simplifies communication through multiple Value Added Networks (VANs) using text-filtering techniques to avoid sending binary data.
