Sets the encryption mode used by the ISCL operations. This function is available in the Medical Suite toolkits.

Parameter

Description

nEncryptionMode

Flag that specifies the encryption mode. Possible values are:

 

Value

Meaning

 

DICOM_ISCL_ENCRYPT_NONE

The data is transmitted without encryption.

 

DICOM_ISCL_ENCRYPT_DESCBC

The data is transmitted encrypted using the DES algorithm in cipher block chaining mode.

Returns

DICOM_SUCCESS

Success

DICOM_ERROR_PARAMETER

A parameter error occurred. The encryption mode will be set to DICOM_ISCL_ENCRYPT_NONE.

Comments

If an incorrect value is passed for the nEncryptionMode parameter, the encryption mode is set to DICOM_ISCL_ENCRYPT_NONE.
