### Periodic re-keying during full drive encryption

A man encrypted a hard drive in 1996 using three key 3-DES with a 64 bit IV and CBC mode in the following manner using known 1990s algorithms on a 1996 PC. Here is how he did it. Start with a ...

### Help needed for IBM KCV

I found old key letters used in EFT HSMs with TDES keys, parted in two halfs. The check value printed on this letters is called IBM CV and doubled IBM CV. My newer HSM does not support this kind of ...

### 3DES security when K1=K3

I am mainly looking for security on 2-key $\operatorname{3DES}$ implementation where $K_1=K_3$. How hard or easy is it to crack $\operatorname{3DES}$ when $K_1=K_3$?

### Would Triple DES-X with 7 keys be much slower than standard Triple DES?

Since a single hardware pass of an XOR with a 64-bit key is speedy, would Triple DES-X with seven 64-bit keys used in the following manner be virtually identical in terms of code size, memory ...
