Default Best Encryption Algorithm, Mode & Key Generator?


Hi Guys!

I recently installed BestCrypt 8 and it has different encryprion algorithm like
  • Triple DES
  • Blowfish 448
  • Cast
  • Gost
  • RC6
  • AES (Rijndael)
  • Serpent
  • Twofish
Apart from encryprion algorithm, there is some thing called Mode which again has two diffetent choices :
  • LRW - Tweakable Narrow-block
  • CBC - Cipher-block chaining
Lastly it has something called Key generator with options like:
  • SHA-256
  • KG-Ghost
Now, all this is very confusing. Can you guys tell me which of these should be selected to get the best security.

Thank you.

Default Re: Best Encryption Algorithm, Mode & Key Generator?

AES (Rijndael) - 256-bit key encryption
Blowfish - 448-bit key encryption
CAST - 128-bit key encryption
GOST 28147-89 - 256-bit key encryption
RC6 - 256-bit key encryption
Serpent - 256-bit key encryption
Triple-Des - 168-bit key encryption
Twofish - 256-bit key encryption

higher d encryption key size more diffcult is it 2 decrypt it by rogue means

it appears dat LRW Iis more secure than CBC

y dont ujust go thru d help file documentation availlable on der website

I have already gone through the whole documentation. Its does explain about the algorithms but doesnt say which one is the best.
