AES Encryption

AES encryption. The Chilkat encryption component supports 128-bit, 192-bit, and 256-bit AES encryption in ECB (Electronic Cookbook), CBC (Cipher-Block Chaining), and other modes. PowerShell

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

# AES is also known as Rijndael.

# CipherMode may be "ecb", "cbc", "ofb", "cfb", "gcm", etc.
# Note: Check the online reference documentation to see the Chilkat versions
# when certain cipher modes were introduced.

# 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.  AES has a block
# size of 16 bytes, so encrypted output is always
# a multiple of 16.

# encryption, and the input for decryption.
# It may be "hex", "url", "base64", or "quoted-printable".

# Encrypt a string...
# The input string is 44 ANSI characters (i.e. 44 bytes), so
# the output should be 48 bytes (a multiple of 16).
# Because the output is a hex string, it should
# be 96 characters long (2 chars per byte).
