AES EncryptionAlgorithm.
Block Cipher's various working modes, including ECB, CBC, and counter. Cipher has many problems to consider when using it as disk encryption. The main reason is that the ECB mode does not work (obviously), and the CBC mode is not good (random access is not allowed). Therefore, IEEE has standardized A p1619 standard, IEEE Standard for cryptographic protection of data on block-oriented storage devices, see http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/xpl/mostRecentIssue.jsp? Punumber = 4493431 and Wiki pages Http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_P1619An encryption mode named XTS-AES is proposed as the encryption mode, which features: 1, disk block (such as a sector) is divided into multiple cipher blocks (such as AES-128 128bit); 2, each Cipher Block is independent (not as dependency as CBC). 3. The encrypted input of the Cipher Block contains the index information (fan area number and block number). For more information, see truecrypt Introduction: http://www.truecrypt.org/docs? S = modes-of-operation this encryption mode is used for truecyrpt, OpenBSD/FreeBSD disk encryption, and Mac OS X filevault. For more information, see the wiki page: Configure (similar to ECB or counter mode), for example, parallconfigurationhttp: // www.truecrypt.org/docs /? S = parallconfiguration
