Use Encryption Configuration

Encryption Configuration enables you to select the encryption algorithms your clients will use, and to choose the security message format. The default security message format in Exchange 2000 is Secure Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions (S/MIME), though compatibility with the Exchange 4.0/5.0 security message format is also available.

If you have more than one Key Management server in your organization, you can choose one to manage Advanced Security in an administrative group that does not currently contain its own Key Management server.

Use Encryption Configuration to perform the following tasks:

• Choose the Key Management Server
• Select the Preferred Encryption Algorithm For Your Clients
• Choose the Security Message Format
