# Stored cryptography

This category focuses on the encryption of stored data. It encompasses several key aspects, such as employing established algorithms and cryptographic modules, ensuring the proper generation of pseudo-random values, implementing encryption based on data classification, and securely storing and isolating key material.

-   **[Enable glide KMF encrypter \[Removed in Security Center 1.3.2\]](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/brazil/markdown/platform-security/instance-security-hardening-settings/sc-enable-glide-kmf-encrypter.md)**  
Manage the encrypters used for Password2 fields on your instance.
-   **[Disable use of TripleDES/3DES encryption algorithm](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/brazil/markdown/platform-security/instance-security-hardening-settings/sc-disable-use-of-tripledes-3des-encryption-algorithm.md)**  
Avoid the security risks of outdated encryption methods by disabling the use of the TripleDES/3DES encryption algorithm.
-   **[Prevent usage of 3DES keys](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/brazil/markdown/platform-security/instance-security-hardening-settings/sc-prevent-usage-of-3des-keys.md)**
