Hello, 

 

Regarding to the Cipher suite, The Windows server the application runs on supports different cryptographic algorithms.

Cipher Suites in TLS/SSL (Schannel SSP) - Win32 apps | Microsoft Docs

For modern Windows Servers, the list can be found here.

 

Does the Powerbuilder 2019 R3 support the Cipher suite?

 

thanks in advance.

I do not believe PB currently supplies an implementation of the Cipher Suite, but...

The Crypter object that is available in 2019 R3 provides a variety of encryption/decryption functionality:

   https://docs.appeon.com/pb2021/objects_and_controls/CrypterObject_object.html

I looked very briefly at the Cipher Suite documentation at the link you provided, and I believe it may be possible to interface PB with the Cipher Suite's Windows API functions and structures, but it probably would require someone with good working familiarity on how to interface PB with Windows API calls and a non-trivial amount of effort. To my knowledge, no one has yet done this, but someone in the Community could surprise me!

Depending on the importance of including Cipher Suite functionality in your PB application, you might wish to search for third-party vendor solutions. Chilkat may provide something suitable, but that's purely a guess on my part.

Good luck with your search!
