    摘要: Described embodiments provide systems and methods for data encryption. A server communicating data with a client can determine a level of data encryption on the data that the server is capable of handling according to resources available to the server. A level of data encryption can include a type of encryption and a strength of the type of data encryption. The server can receive a level of data encryption on the data that the client is capable of handling according to resources available to the client. The server can identify a level of data encryption with which the server and the client agree to proceed, according to the determined level of data encryption and the received level of data encryption. The server, following a predefined interval, can identify an updated level of data encryption with which the server and the client agree to proceed.
