(JavaScript) 3DES Encryption, ECB, CBC modes

3DES encryption. The Chilkat encryption component supports Triple-DES in both ECB (Electronic Cookbook) and CBC (Cipher-Block Chaining) cipher modes.

Note

This example is intended for running within a Chilkat.Js embedded JavaScript engine. All Chilkat JavaScript examples require Chilkat v11.4.0 or greater.

// This example assumes the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
// See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

var crypt = new CkCrypt2();

// Specify 3DES for the encryption algorithm:
crypt.CryptAlgorithm = "3des";

// CipherMode may be "ecb" or "cbc"
crypt.CipherMode = "cbc";

// KeyLength must be 192.  3DES is technically 168-bits;
// the most-significant bit of each key byte is a parity bit,
// so we must indicate a KeyLength of 192, which includes
// the parity bits.
crypt.KeyLength = 192;

// The padding scheme determines the contents of the bytes
// that are added to pad the result to a multiple of the
// encryption algorithm's block size.  3DES has a block
// size of 8 bytes, so encrypted output is always
// a multiple of 8.
crypt.PaddingScheme = 0;

// EncodingMode specifies the encoding of the output for
// encryption, and the input for decryption.
// It may be "hex", "url", "base64", or "quoted-printable".
crypt.EncodingMode = "hex";

// An initialization vector is required if using CBC or CFB modes.
// ECB mode does not use an IV.
// The length of the IV is equal to the algorithm's block size.
// It is NOT equal to the length of the key.
var ivHex = "0001020304050607";
crypt.SetEncodedIV(ivHex,"hex");

// The secret key must equal the size of the key.  For 
// 3DES, the key must be 24 bytes (i.e. 192-bits).
var keyHex = "000102030405060708090A0B0C0D0E0F0001020304050607";
crypt.SetEncodedKey(keyHex,"hex");

// Encrypt a string...
// The input string is 44 ANSI characters (i.e. 44 bytes), so
// the output should be 48 bytes (a multiple of 8).
// Because the output is a hex string, it should
// be 96 characters long (2 chars per byte).
var encStr = crypt.EncryptStringENC("The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.");
console.log(encStr);

// Now decrypt:
var decStr = crypt.DecryptStringENC(encStr);
console.log(decStr);
