Encryption Registration Number (ERN) or CCATS required for client/server encryption?

I want to encrypt communication between iPhone and my server and I will not use SSL for that. Do I still need ERN or CCATS application for that?

It really depends on what type of encryption you are using. What is the level of encryption? Is it open source?

To see whether you need a ERN, please review the following flowchart:

The flowchart will help point you in the right direction in the BIS.
