(Classic ASP) Encrypting a Data Stream

This example illustrates encrypting a large dataset using symmetric encryption algorithms like AES, ChaCha20, Blowfish, etc. The data is processed in chunks using the EncryptStringENC method. The FirstChunk and LastChunk properties identify whether a chunk is the first, intermediate, or last in the encrypted stream. By default, both properties are set to 1, indicating that the data provided represents the entire dataset.

You can provide data chunks smaller than the encryption algorithm's block size. For example, AES uses 16-byte blocks; 3DES, and Blowfish use 8-byte blocks; and ChaCha20, as a streaming algorithm, effectively has a block size of 1 byte.

Chilkat handles the buffering of data as needed. If a data chunk smaller than the block size is provided, an empty string (or 0 bytes) is returned, and the data is buffered to be combined with subsequent chunks. The final chunk is padded to the algorithm's block size (as determined by the PaddingScheme property) to complete the encryption process.

Chunk-wise decryption follows the same procedure as chunk-wise encryption.
