FAQ

What is Triple DES (3DES)?

3DES applies DES three times (EDE) to increase security. Decrypt with 3DES decryption.

Why use 3DES instead of DES?

3DES mitigates DES's 56-bit weakness. For new systems, use AES.

What key sizes does 3DES support?

Common effective key sizes are 112-bit and 168-bit (two or three keys). Set key-size in the tool.

Which mode should I choose for 3DES?

Use CBC/CTR and avoid ECB. Configure mode in this 3DES tool.

Can I decrypt 3DES without key/IV?

No. The same key and IV/mode are required. Try 3DES decryption.
