How to Encrypt / Decrypt with AES (CCM & GCM) in Node.JS

04 Apr

First of all we have to understand what is CCM mode and GCM mode. Roughly: CCM CCM mode (Counter with CBC-MAC) is a mode of operation for cryptographic block ciphers. It is an authenticated encryption algorithm designed to provide both authentication and confidentiality. CCM mode is only defined for block ciphers with a block length of 128 bits. GCM Galois/Counter …

Recently I learned how to generate shared secrets using ECDH in Node.JS, but I still had to know how to use this shared secret. Here is one application for it. Use the ECDH to generate a shared secret and then use that shared secret to cipher/decipher messages between both parties, in this case Joe and Zoe. Here is the code: …

Easy as pie! var crypto = require(‘crypto’); var AES128 = “aes128”; var AES192 = “aes192”; var AES256 = “aes256”; var password = ‘Austin’; var plainText = ‘Texas to the bone!’; // ———————————————— var cipher = crypto.createCipher(AES128, password); var decipher = crypto.createDecipher(AES128, password); console.log(‘AES-128:’); // Encrypting with AES128 var encText = cipher.update(plainText, ‘utf8’, ‘hex’); encText += cipher.final(‘hex’); console.log(encText); // Decrypting with …

Here I have created a class that does it in two different ways, the first one is, when you create the key, and the other is when you are given the key, valid key sizes are 128, 192, and 256 for AES algorithm. There is some steps to follow before executing the code provied, if you don’t probably this class …
