Quizplus · Accepted Answer

IPsec provides confidentiality by using the Encapsulated Security Payload (ESP) protocol to encrypt the data. Internet Key Exchange (IKE) is used to establish the encryption keys. Authentication Header (AH) provides integrity and authenticity but does not provide confidentiality. Encrypted Security Header is not a protocol used in IPsec.
