AES256 ENCRYPTION
AES-256 Encryption prevents data from being captured when travelling over the network wire between the Traka32
application and the customer database. This will prevent unauthorised access to personal information that could
inherently provide unauthorised access to high security keys held in the Traka key cabinets.
NOTE:
Traka32 version 02.09.0009 or above is required, plus an XPort with the Encryption compatibility.
How to tell the difference between normal XPorts and XPorts with Encryption compatibility?
There is a part number printed on the side of every XPort. The 6th digit will show whether or not the XPort is
configured for Encryption.
Standard: XP100
