Encryption Algorithms Explained
AES-256 (Advanced Encryption Standard)
AES-256 is a symmetric encryption algorithm that uses a 256-bit key to encrypt and decrypt data. It's widely considered one of the most secure encryption standards available today.
Key features:
- 256-bit key size - Extremely secure against brute force attacks
- Symmetric encryption - Same key is used for encryption and decryption
- Block cipher - Encrypts data in fixed-size blocks (128 bits)
- Used worldwide - Adopted by governments, banks, and security experts
Our implementation uses a password-based key derivation function (PBKDF2) to generate a secure 256-bit key from your password.
Caesar Cipher
The Caesar Cipher is one of the simplest and oldest encryption techniques, used by Julius Caesar to protect military messages.
How it works:
- Each letter in the plaintext is shifted a fixed number of positions down the alphabet
- For example, with a shift of 3: A → D, B → E, C → F, etc.
- Letters wrap around the alphabet: Z → C (with shift 3)
- Non-alphabetic characters remain unchanged
While not secure by modern standards, it's excellent for learning about encryption basics and for simple obfuscation.
XOR Cipher
The XOR Cipher is a basic encryption algorithm that uses the exclusive OR (XOR) logical operation.
How it works:
- Each character in the text is combined with a corresponding character from the key using XOR operation
- The same key is used for both encryption and decryption
- If the key is shorter than the text, it's repeated to match the length
- Applying XOR twice with the same key returns the original text
While simple, XOR cipher can be secure if the key is truly random and as long as the message (one-time pad).
Algorithm Comparison
| Algorithm | Security Level | Speed | Best Use Case |
|---|---|---|---|
| AES-256 | Very High | Fast | Sensitive data, passwords, confidential information |
| Caesar Cipher | Low | Very Fast | Educational purposes, simple obfuscation |
| XOR Cipher | Medium (with strong key) | Fast | Basic encryption, learning cryptography |
