Remarks
The CipherStrength property returns the number of bits in
the key used to encrypt the secure data stream. Common values
returned by this property are 40, 56 and 128. A key length of
40-bits is considered to be relatively insecure, while a key length
of 56-bit is considered moderate and 128-bit keys are considered to
be very secure. If this property returns a value of 0, this means
that a secure connection has not been established with the
server.
