Abstract

This document describes a security transform providing privacy and optional replay protection through Encapsulating Secure Payload (ESP). The transform defines how to use ESP in conjunction with byte-oriented stream ciphers, such as RC4 or SEAL. These stream ciphers offer strong encryption with comparatively low computational demands, and are thus favorable for multimedia bulk data or environments where the computing power needed per packet should be low.
