Comet Cryptographic Capabilities

Supported Encryption Algorithms

  • RC4 - Rivest Cipher 4: Wiki
    • Key Length: Typically 40-256 bits (5-32 bytes)
    • This is the simplest and fastest of the supported algorithms and is the algorithm currently used by Comet-16 and is the default algorithm used by Comet-32. See Encrypt/Decrypt
  • 3DES - Triple Data Encryption Standard: Wiki
    • Key Length: 168 bits although 192 bits (24 bytes) must be supplied (parity bits are discarded).
    • Block Size: 8 Bytes
  • AES - Advanced Encryption Standard: Wiki
    • Key Length: 128, 192, 256 bits
    • Block Size: 16 Bytes


Supported Hash Algorithms

  • SHA1 - Secure Hash Algorithm 1: Wiki
  • MD5 - Message Digest 5: Wiki


  • Encrypt
  • Decrypt
  • CryptoSetKeyInfo
  • CryptoGenerateRandom
  • CryptoCreateHash
Personal tools
