The Security package provides encryption, decryption and hashing functions. The major functionalities offered in the Security Package are the following:

  • Encrypt(), EncryptBytes() and Decrypt(), DecryptBytes() provide crypting functionality.
  • Hash() provides a set of one-way, secure hashes.
    •

    Some definitions of the modes of the ciphers listed below:

    Electronic codebook (ECB)
    Cipher-block chaining (CBC)
    Propagating cipher-block chaining (PCBC)
    Cipher feedback (CFB)
    Output feedback (OFB)

    For more information please see this link at wikipedia.

    Examples:

    String data = "This is my data"
    String key = "TheseAreNotTheDroids"

    String enc = Security.Encrypt ( data, key, Security.DES_EDE3_CBC )
    String dec = Security.Decrypt ( enc, key, Security.DES_EDE3_CBC )
    Bytes benc = Security.EncryptBytes ( data, key, Security.DES_EDE3_CBC )
    dec = Security.DecryptBytes ( benc, key, Security.DES_EDE3_CBC )

    String hash = Security.Hash ( data, Security.MD5 )
    echo ( "MD5 hash = ", hash )

    MD5 hash = bf27d031ffc5410071c553be3d93020b
