Hi,

You would require a 3DES/AES license on the ASA which would enable K9 encryption:

Adding to Aditya's answer, the 3DES-AES license is free and avaialble to any registered user who's not in one of the export-controlled areas under US law (N. Korea, Syria, etc.).

Go to Cisco Software Central (https://software.cisco.com) and under the Traditional Licensing section there is a place to select a new Crypto (3DES-AES) license.
