-<p>The following information is displayed for the selected cipher suite:</p>
-
-<ul>
-  <li><strong>Cypher:</strong> Encryption module name.</li>
-  <li><strong>Encryption algorithm:</strong> Used for bulk encryption and 
-    decryption.</li>
-  <li><strong>Authentication Algorithm:</strong> Used to determine the server 
-    or client&apos;s identity.</li>
-  <li><strong>Effective Key Algorithm:</strong> Governs the way in which the 
-    server and client determine the symmetric keys they will both use during an 
-    SSL session.</li>
-  <li><strong>Key Size:</strong> The size of the keys used with this cipher 
-    suite. (Encryption strength depends on both encryption algorithm and key 
-    size.)</li>
-  <li><strong>MAC Algorithm:</strong> Used for tamper detection and data 
-    verification; sometimes called message digest or hash algorithm.</li>
-  <li><strong>Other Attributes:</strong> These can include the following:
-    <ul>
-      <li><strong>FIPS</strong> Complies with Federal Information Processing 
-        Standards Publications (FIPS PUBS) 140-1. Many products sold to the US 
-        government must comply with one or more FIPS standards.</li>
-      <li><strong>IsExportable</strong> Cipher suite was legally exportable 
-        under regulations published by the U.S. Department of Commerce that 
-        previously limited the encryption strength of exported products. Those 
-        regulations have since been loosened.</li>
