Notes (likewise supply, billing and accounting artifacts, etc.) are not
themselves encrypted using the VA's hashing algorithms, but are run through
a checksum whose value along with the signer's Signature Block and the
Internal Entry Number for the given record ARE encrypted and the resulting
value stored with the record.  That information is checked at the time of
any re-display for signs of tampering.  Just about any encryption algorithm
can be reasonably substituted in the XUSHSH and XUSHSHP routines.

Subject: [Hardhats-members] Time-stamping progress notes

There was a comment made during the recent conference that made it
sound like, in the VA, that progress notes are somehow encrypted with
the time-stamp from the point of signature.  This is not true in the
FOIA release, which I know has the cryptography parts removed.

The time-stamp that I see is in the header fields for the WP field,
but doesn't affect the text itself.  Is there a replacement encryption
module that could lock the WP fields?  Or was the statement incorrect?
