Seven collumns have been removed and replaced with dots. This was done for printing purposes, as the full text exceeds the page margins, when generating the DVI document version. If you would like to see the private key, just pass to the next section. |
The careful reader will see that the encryption algorithm used is 3DES. 3DES is a US standard (NIST FIPS 46-3). As a sidenote, 3DES is DES used 3 times in ENCRYPT, DECRYPT and finally ENCRYPT mode (EDE). The DES component was used in Cipher Block Chaining (CBC) mode, a common mode of encryption for block ciphers. |
