>Implementation Guidance

1. Ensure that the encryption is enabled along with type of encryption algorithm being used as applicable (e.g. for AWS S3 - AWS SSE-KMSetc., full disk encryption for on prem databases). 2. Ensure that strong industry standard cryptographic ciphers and keys with an effective strength greater than 112 bits are required for cryptographic security operations.

>Testing Procedure

1. Validate evidence showing that encryption is enabled along with type of encryption algorithm being used as applicable (e.g. for AWS S3 - AWS SSE-KMSetc., full disk encryption for on prem databases) to ensure that only strong encryption algorithms mandated by Organization Cryptography standard are in use where applicable. 2. Validate whether the keys have a strength greater than 112 bits for cryptographic security operations.
