| 72 | The second sentence of the Issuance and Guidance on page 72 is misleading and factually incorrect. "Encrypted data is intrinsically protected; if someone has the data without its corresponding keys, they cannot use the data at all." Encrypting data will guarantee that the data is not viewed or modified by a party that does not possess the corresponding keys. However, encrypted data can be used in reply attacks. As such, it is imperative that the transfer of encrypted data utzilize secure tokens and timestamps to ensure the transmission is not subject to replay attacks. The use of SSL/TLS for data transmission will provide both encryption of data and protection against replay attacks. | Michael Coates |
