Encryption Algorithms

CryptDeCrypt allows you to encrypt data based on an entered password using various cryptographic algorithms, such as AES, Triple DES, GOST, RC2, RC4 and Data Protection Windows API. A common question may appear: Which algorithm is better? Typically a strength of an algorithm depends on a cipher key length. On an estimation that encryption algorithm is attempted to be broken by applying brute computational force any algorithm with a key length 256-bit would not be breakable in the nearest future. We would lean in favor of using AES or Triple-DES among the provided algorithms to encrypt your data. That does not mean that you may not use other given algorithms, they also provide a powerful capability of securing your data. A particular attention should be paid to Data Protection API algorithms. They provide an integrated encryption security with Windows operating system.
