Information
In cryptography, Triple DES (triple data encryption standard) is a symmetric-key block cipher, which applies the DES cipher algorithm three times to each data block, improving on it's vulnerabilities.
It uses 3 keys to encrypt the data firstly with key 1, secondly decrypts with key 2 and then encrypts it again with key 3.
How to use:
Firstly, input a key. This will be used in the algorithm to encrypt your plaintext. Alternatively, the generate key button will do so for you.
Then, input some plaintext; what you want to encrypt. An output will appear in the bottom boxes with the base64 and Hexadecimal versions of your ciphertext along with execution time.
Conversely, to decrypt, simply add the base64 ciphertext into the top input box along with key to decrypt with.
