Class Camellia256

Namespace
CryptoHives.Foundation.Security.Cryptography.Cipher
Assembly
CryptoHives.Foundation.Security.Cryptography.dll

Camellia-256 symmetric cipher implementation.

public sealed class Camellia256 : SymmetricCipher, IDisposable
Inheritance
Camellia256
Implements
Inherited Members

Remarks

Camellia-256 uses a 256-bit (32-byte) key with 24 rounds of encryption. It is specified in RFC 3713 and ISO/IEC 18033-3.

Security level: 256 bits (quantum: 128 bits with Grover's algorithm)

Recommendations:

  • Use Camellia-256 for long-term security requirements.
  • Recommended for post-quantum resistance (Grover's algorithm halves security).

Example usage:

using var camellia = Camellia256.Create();
camellia.Mode = CipherMode.CBC;
camellia.Padding = PaddingMode.PKCS7;
camellia.GenerateKey();
camellia.GenerateIV();

byte[] ciphertext = camellia.Encrypt(plaintext); byte[] decrypted = camellia.Decrypt(ciphertext);
