Example for both AES-128 and ChaCha20 to Encrypt Binary Data

See more Encryption Examples

Demonstrates the use of the new EncryptBd and DecryptBd methods introduced in Chilkat v9.5.0.67 to encrypt/decrypt binary bytes.

Note: This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.67 or greater.

LOCAL lnSuccess
LOCAL loJpgBytes
LOCAL loCrypt
LOCAL lcIvHex
LOCAL lcKeyHex

lnSuccess = 0

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

*  Load a small JPG file to be encrypted/decrypted.
loJpgBytes = CreateObject('Chilkat.BinData')
lnSuccess = loJpgBytes.LoadFile("qa_data/jpg/starfish.jpg")
IF (lnSuccess <> 1) THEN
    ? "Failed to load JPG file."
    RELEASE loJpgBytes
    CANCEL
ENDIF

*  Show the unencrypted JPG bytes in Base64 format.
*  (The "base64_mime" encoding was added in Chilkat v9.5.0.67.
*  The "base64" encoding emits a single line of base64, whereas
*  "base64_mime" will emit multi-line base64 as it would appear
*  in MIME.)
? loJpgBytes.GetEncoded("base64_mime")

*  Sample base64_mime JPG data:

*  	/9j/4AAQSkZJRgABAgEASABIAAD/7Q18UGhvdG9zaG9wIDMuMAA4QklNA+0AAAAAABAASAAAAAEA
*  	AQBIAAAAAQABOEJJTQPzAAAAAAAIAAAAAAAAAAE4QklNBAoAAAAAAAEAADhCSU0nEAAAAAAACgAB

*  	MgAAAAEAWgAAAAYAAAAAAAEANQAAAAEALQAAAAYAAAAAAAE4QklNBBQAAAAAAAQAAAABOEJJTQQM
*  	...

loCrypt = CreateObject('Chilkat.Crypt2')

*  Specify the encryption to be used.
*  First we'll do AES-128 CBC
loCrypt.CryptAlgorithm = "aes"
loCrypt.CipherMode = "cbc"
loCrypt.KeyLength = 128

lcIvHex = "000102030405060708090A0B0C0D0E0F"
loCrypt.SetEncodedIV(lcIvHex,"hex")

lcKeyHex = "000102030405060708090A0B0C0D0E0F101112131415161718191A1B1C1D1E1F"
loCrypt.SetEncodedKey(lcKeyHex,"hex")

*  Do the in-place 128-bit AES CBC encryption.
*  The contents of jpgBytes are replaced with the encrypted bytes.
lnSuccess = loCrypt.EncryptBd(loJpgBytes)
IF (lnSuccess <> 1) THEN
    ? loCrypt.LastErrorText
    RELEASE loJpgBytes
    RELEASE loCrypt
    CANCEL
ENDIF

*  Examine the JPG bytes again.  The bytes should be different because they are encrypted:
? loJpgBytes.GetEncoded("base64_mime")

*  Sample base64_mime encrypted JPG data:

*  	sbz0babt1WCkQf5xKMdg/baZAcUBO5GVUUDF2BjVqmd+HrqKN+t6hAcqakL/bdo0q9hYmow0Tp1e
*  	AQ9V9DOiifQUZqWVkR+kL/c45bq8JGFDvgNl0djPt+yYhV789IB/fPH0upx+/ad++WNOlv1IxGMr

*  	O90aH3steRSYbz8C8UF9wQ3qqEIXQNnnixvoNDnmHyY39VoVBI5F6rnPwYDfAk2t8tmuryFqvwAu
*  	...

*  Decrypt to restore back to the original:
lnSuccess = loCrypt.DecryptBd(loJpgBytes)
IF (lnSuccess <> 1) THEN
    ? loCrypt.LastErrorText
    RELEASE loJpgBytes
    RELEASE loCrypt
    CANCEL
ENDIF

? loJpgBytes.GetEncoded("base64_mime")

*  	...

*  ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*  To do chacha20 encryption, just change the settings:

loCrypt.CryptAlgorithm = "chacha20"
loCrypt.KeyLength = 256
*  The initial count is the initial block counter for the chacha20 algorithm.
*  It can be any integer, but must be set to the same when decrypting.
loCrypt.InitialCount = 22

lnSuccess = loCrypt.EncryptBd(loJpgBytes)
*  jpgBytes now contains chacha20 encrypted bytes.

lnSuccess = loCrypt.DecryptBd(loJpgBytes)
*  jpgBytes is now restored back to the original unencrypted by bytes.

*  Save the bytes to a file..
lnSuccess = loJpgBytes.WriteFile("qa_output/starfish.jpg")

? "Success."

RELEASE loJpgBytes
