This is triple-DES +encryption where an encrypt operation is encrypt-decrypt-encrypt, and +decrypt is decrypt-encrypt-decrypt. This implementation uses Crypt::DES +to do its dirty DES work, and simply provides a wrapper around that +module: setting up the individual DES ciphers, initializing the keys, +and performing the encryption/decryption steps. + +DES-EDE3 encryption requires a key size of 24 bytes. |
