Adaptive Server Enterprise version 12.5.3 includes these changes for Secure Sockets Layer (SSL):
New cipher suites using the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) algorithm
New options to sp_ssladmin to set preferences for cipher suites accepted by Adaptive Server
New global variable @@ssl_ciphersuite to tell the client which cipher suite was chosen by the SSL handshake
These enhancements let the system security officer manage SSL more efficiently, and allow client applications to determine the encryption algorithms used on their connection.
