After working on a S38/AS400/i5 for 30 years I have finally hit a problem I cannot find an answer for....Also excuse my naivety on security algorithm's, there is a first time for everyone
Using the Qc3EncyptData API I have hit a problem with trying to configure the processing to handle the AES-GCM encryption.
AES can be accessed using the Block Cipher Algorithm of "22" but when I come to set the Mode there is no "GCM" for selection (V7R4 manual).
It looks like AES-GCM has been around for a few years so does Qc3EncyptData not support this encryption format or am I missing something?
Did have a look at V7R5 and cannot find anything there either.
Any suggestions on how to access AES-GCM from within an RPG program is the API does not support the function?
Thanks
Alex
