H3: Security Strength Factors
The server uses {{TERM[expand]Security Strength Factors}} (SSF) to
indicate the relative strength of protection. A SSF of zero (0)
indicates no protections are in place. A SSF of one (1) indicates
integrity protection are in place. A SSF greater than one (>1)
roughly correlates to the effective encryption key length. For
example, {{TERM:DES}} is 56, {{TERM:3DES}} is 112, and {{TERM:AES}}
128, 192, or 256.

A number of administrative controls rely on SSFs associated with
TLS and SASL protection in place on an LDAP session.
