(Classic ASP) 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.

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

' For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use CreateObject("Chilkat_9_5_0.Crypt2")
set crypt = Server.CreateObject("Chilkat.Crypt2")

' 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.
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).
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).
encStr = crypt.EncryptStringENC("The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.")
Response.Write "<pre>" & Server.HTMLEncode( encStr) & "</pre>"

' Now decrypt:
decStr = crypt.DecryptStringENC(encStr)
Response.Write "<pre>" & Server.HTMLEncode( decStr) & "</pre>"
