Is this a secure encryption method

问题:

I'm writing an application for Android that uses symmetric key encryption to protect sensitive data. As far as I can tell, Android only directly supports "PBEWithMD5AndDES". How secure is this algorithm? Also, I've included my code below (non-andriod). Is my code correctly encrypting the data?

回答1:

Both MD5 and DES are weak. If your data being encrypted is really valuable, you should look for some external crypto library for Android that offers AES and SHA256/SHA512 algorithms.

If you want to encrypt data using a symmetric key encryption, I recommend:
1) Use AES, because it is certified by the NSA for data classified as secret.
2) Use a well reviewed implementation so you don't have to research the proper way to configure the code. For example, AESCrypt.

You can find AESCrypt here: http://www.aescrypt.com/java_aes_crypt.html

I've seen AESCrypt used in several financial institutions. AESCrypt for java is a single class that calls JCE methods. Android, JCE is implemented by bouncycastle. I have seen bouncycastle used in several major financial institutions.
