Cipher Workshop

A client-side cryptographic playground for learning and testing symmetric algorithms.

DES (Data Encryption Standard)

A legacy algorithm from the 1970s. While historically significant, it is now considered insecure due to its short 56-bit key length. This tool provides DES block encryption for educational purposes.

AES (Advanced Encryption Standard)

The modern standard for symmetric encryption. This tool offers AES-128 for single-block operations and AES-128-CBC for encrypting arbitrary data with PKCS#7 padding.
