QDLPluginEncryptionPS

Although cryptography is a complex topic, the plugin's API are designed with the goal of making encryption, error detection and hashing accessible with the minimum of effort. In a nutshell, the plugin offer the following services:

• Encryption/Descryption:easy and quick encryption/decryption of either a block of memory or an entire file. The plugin provides a wide choice of both block-based and stream-based ciphers. Among the others:
  • RC4, RC5
  • DES, Triple-DES
  • AES
  • Serpent
  • Blowfish
  • Twofish
  • Rabbit
  • Salsa 20
• Hashing:computing of the hash value of a block of memory using one of the cryptographic hash functions offered by the plugin:
  • SHA-256
  • SHA-512
  • MD5
  • HMAC-MD5
  • Tiger
• Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC):the plugin offers a wide choice of CRC algorithms to perform error detection on memory or files: 8, 16,32 and 64 bits based CRC algorithms are implemented by the plugin. The CRC functionalities are provided as extensions of the Memoryblock and Folderitem classes built- in the Xojo Framework.
