The des evp_cipher implementations

Overview

Support for DES symmetric encryption using the EVP_CIPHER API.

Algorithm Names

The following algorithms are available in the FIPS provider as well as the default provider:

"DES-EDE3-ECB" or "DES-EDE3"
"DES-EDE3-CBC" or "DES3"

The following algorithms are available in the default provider, but not the FIPS provider:

"DES-EDE3-CFB8" and "DES-EDE3-CFB1"
"DES-EDE-ECB" or "DES-EDE"
"DES-EDE-CBC"
"DES-EDE-OFB"
"DES-EDE-CFB"
"DES3-WRAP"

The following algorithms are available in the legacy provider:

"DES-ECB"
"DES-CBC"
"DES-OFB"
"DES-CFB", "DES-CFB1" and "DES-CFB8"
"DESX-CBC"

Parameters

This implementation supports the parameters described in "PARAMETERS" in EVP_EncryptInit(3) including "encrypt-check" and "fips-indicator".
