If I am using a block cipher such as AES which has a block size of 128 bits, what do I do if my data is not an even multiple of 128 bits? I am working with packets of data and do not want to change the size of my packet when encrypting it, yet my data is not an even multiple of 128? Does the AES block cipher allow handling of a final b...
I'm writing an android app where I need to use AES. Is it better to use the bouncy castle libraries or should I just stick with what is included in default android libraries? ...
When I use C# to implement the AES symmetric encryption cipher, I noticed: PasswordDeriveBytes derivedPassword = new PasswordDeriveBytes(password, saltBytesArray, hashAlgorithmName, numPasswordIterations); Why do I need to use a hashing algorithm for AES encryption? Aren't they separate? Or is the hashing algorithm only used to create...
I need to create a Windows Mobile Application (WinMo 6.x - C#) which is used to encrypt/decrypt files. However it is my duty to write the encryption algorithm which is AES-128 along with XTS as the mode of operation. RijndaelManaged just doesn't cut it :( Very much slower than DES and 3DES CryptoServiceProviders :O I know it all depend...
Is there any implementation of AES-XTS written in C# available in the Internet? Bouncy Castle disappointed me :( I took the source codes of TrueCrypt and FreeOTFE but they are written in C which is very hard for me to understand... Anyone? ...
I'm trying to decrypt a string using PHP which was encrypted using a Chilkat library. VB Encryption: Dim password As String password = "foobar" crypt.CryptAlgorithm = "aes" crypt.CipherMode = "cbc" crypt.KeyLength = 128 ' Generate a binary secret key from a password string ' of any length. For 128-bit encryption, GenEncodedSecretK...
Hello, I have the following .Net code which takes two inputs. 1) A 128 bit base 64 encoded key and 2) the userid. It outputs the AES encrypted token. I need the php equivalent of the same code, but dont know which corresponding php classes are to be used for RNGCryptoServiceProvider,RijndaelManaged,ICryptoTransform,MemoryStream and Cryp...
So I've been looking at these test vectors for the Known Answer Test for AES / Rijndael (with 128-bit block) in CBC mode, and I wonder: what kind of padding do they use? PKCS7? ...
For one of my projects @ college, I wanted to create a WinMo application to secure data. I have previously used FreeOTFE and I wanted to implement similar functionality to my application. My choice of encryption algorithm was AES-128 with XTS mode of operation. I also wanted to create a stream interface driver for my application as well ...
I have a block of ciphertext that was created using the JCE algorithim "PBEWithSHA256And256BitAES-CBC-BC". The provider is BouncyCastle. What I'd like to do it decrypt this ciphertext using the BouncyCastle lightweight API. I don't want to use JCE because that requires installing the Unlimited Strength Jurisdiction Policy Files. Documen...
I am currently trying to port a legacy Python app over to .NET which contains AES encrpytion using from what I can tell pyCrpyto. I have very limited Python and Crypto experience. The code uses the snippet from the following page. http://www.djangosnippets.org/snippets/1095/ So far I believe I have managed to work out that it that it ca...
How to generate one-time key in AES counter mode using java cryptography? I want to use that one-time key as session key in my PGP implementation? ...
OK, now I have coded for an implementation of AES-128 :) It is working fine. It takes in 128 bits, encrypts and returns 128 bits So how do i enhance my function so that it can handle more than 128 bits? How do i make the encryption algorithm handle larger strings? Can the same algorithm be used to encrypt files? :) The function def...
I couldn't find aes libraries in .net framework. Is there any external libraries? thanks ...
Hi , I've tried to implement the same steps as discussed in AES .NET but with no success , i can't seem to get java and slowAes to play toghter ... attached is my code i'm sorry i can't add more this is my first time trying to deal with encryption would appreciate any help private static final String ALGORITHM = "AES"; private static ...
After loading my RSACryptoServiceProvider rsa object i would like to create a key for my AES object. Since i dont need to store the AES key (i only need it to decrypt on my prv side) i figure i dont need to store it and i can generate it with my public key. I thought doing rsa.Encrypt(byte[] with 4 hardcoded bytes); would generate the d...
Hi All, I need to create an application that decrypts data that is encrypted using AES with a 512-bit key. What I need to know is whether we can create an AES key of length 512-bits? The documentation says we can create a key of length up to 256-bits. If that is the case, is there any way that I can add my own implementation for 512-bit...
I need to create a Microsoft Access database, but have a need, in one of my tables, for a single field to be strongly encrypted. Since AES requires both a key and an initialization vector, I've decided to solve this problem by requiring a password to access the database (as the key), and a field in the table to hold a SHA1 hash of the ...
This MESSED ME UP hard. I thought i was setting the key but i was not. No exceptions, nothing happen except bad results. Why is there a setter if everything is ignored and no exceptions are thrown when i attempt to write? What is the point of the setter on the Keys property? When i do the below Key value are not changed. After an hour w...
I want to encrypt/decrypt lots of small (2-10kB) pieces of data. The performance is ok for now: On a Core2Duo, I get about 90 MBytes/s AES256 (when using 2 threads). But I may need to improve that in the future - or at least reduce the impact on the CPU. Is it possible to use dedicated AES encryption hardware with Java (using JCE, or m...
