AES
Advanced Encryption Standard - sponsored by NIST, AES was developed for securing
sensitive but unclassified material by U.S. Government agencies. AES is a symmetric
encryption algorithm (same key for encryption and decryption) that uses block encryp-
tion.
FIPS 140-2
Federal Information Processing Standards 140-2 specifies the security requirements
satisfied by a cryptographic module in use within a security system that protects sensi-
tive but unclassified information. The standard provides four increasing, qualitative
levels of security. The security requirements cover areas related to the secure design
and implementation of a cryptographic module.
IED
Intelligent Electronic Device. An IED, as defined in this document, is a device capable
of receiving information and sending appropriate responses. Examples of IEDs are
remote terminal units, programmable logic controllers, communication processors,
relays, meters, etc.
NIST
National Institute of Standards and Technology, a unit of the U.S. Commerce Depart-
ment.
WEP
Wired Equivalent Privacy is a security protocol specified in the IEEE Wireless Fidelity
(Wi-Fi) standard 802.11b. WEP is designed to provide a wireless local area network
(LAN) with a level of security and privacy comparable to that associated with a wired
LAN.
