- **None**: No encryption type.
- **Sign**: Litmus Edge signs messages from the server to assure recipients that the sender is authentic and not an imposter.
- **SignAndEncrypt**: Litmus Edge both signs and encrypts messages from the server to prevent any attackers from reading plain text messages from the server.

## Security Policies

![](https://api.archbee.com/api/optimize/SSUUxKZUk9bFTEPNn_6Zo/Ag6YnMXsbc97ALHEA_jxP_image.png)

- **None**: No encryption type.
- **Basic256Sha256**: 256-Bit encryption. It supports Sha256 or stronger hash algorithms for certificates.
- **Basic256**: 256-Bit encryption. It supports the Sha1 and Sha256 hash algorithms for certificates.
- **Basic128Rsa15**: 128-Bit encryption that uses RSA15 as a Key-Wrap. It supports Sha1 or stronger hash algorithms for certificates.
- **Aes256\_Sha256\_RsaPss**: 256-bit Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) using the RSA Probabilistic Signature Scheme.  
- **Aes128\_Sha256\_RsaOaep**: 128-bit Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) using the RSA with Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding. 

## Restart OPC UA Server

After enabling or disabling a policy, you must restart the OPC UA Server. See [Manage the OPC UA Server](docId\:auzIPeIw63IOIZXLEQ3xe) to learn more.
