Swift - AES encryption
Start
  AES encryption in CBC mode with a random IV (Swift 3.0)

The iv is prefixed to the encrypted data

aesCBC128Encrypt will create a random IV and prefixed to the encrypted code.
aesCBC128Decrypt will use the prefixed IV during decryption.

Inputs are the data and key are Data objects. If an encoded form such as Base64 if required convert to and/or from in the calling method.

The key should be exactly 128-bits (16-bytes), 192-bits (24-bytes) or 256-bits (32-bytes) in length. If another key size is used an error will be thrown.

PKCS#7 padding (opens new window) is set by default.

This example requires Common Crypto
It is necessary to have a bridging header to the project:
#import <CommonCrypto/CommonCrypto.h>
Add the Security.framework to the project.

This is example, not production code.

enum AESError: Error {
    case KeyError((String, Int))
    case IVError((String, Int))
    case CryptorError((String, Int))

Example usage:

let clearData = "clearData0123456".data(using:String.Encoding.utf8)!
let keyData   = "keyData890123456".data(using:String.Encoding.utf8)!
print("clearData:   \(clearData as NSData)")

    print("cryptData:   \(cryptData! as NSData)")
}
catch (let status) {

    let decryptData = try aesCBCDecrypt(data:cryptData!, keyData:keyData)
    print("decryptData: \(decryptData! as NSData)")
}
catch (let status) {
    print("Error aesCBCDecrypt: \(status)")

Notes:
One typical problem with CBC mode example code is that it leaves the creation and sharing of the random IV to the user. This example includes generation of the IV, prefixed the encrypted data and uses the prefixed IV during decryption. This frees the casual user from the details that are necessary for CBC mode (opens new window).

For security the encrypted data also should have authentication, this example code does not provide that in order to be small and allow better interoperability for other platforms.

Also missing is key derivation of the key from a password, it is suggested that PBKDF2 (opens new window) be used is text passwords are used as keying material.

For robust production ready multi-platform encryption code see RNCryptor (opens new window).

Updated to use throw/catch and multiple key sizes based on the provided key.
  AES encryption in CBC mode with a random IV (Swift 2.3)

The iv is prefixed to the encrypted data

aesCBC128Encrypt will create a random IV and prefixed to the encrypted code. aesCBC128Decrypt will use the prefixed IV during decryption.

Inputs are the data and key are Data objects. If an encoded form such as Base64 if required convert to and/or from in the calling method.

The key should be exactly 128-bits (16-bytes). For other key sizes see the Swift 3.0 example.

PKCS#7 padding is set by default.

This example requires Common Crypto It is necessary to have a bridging header to the project: #import <CommonCrypto/CommonCrypto.h> Add the Security.framework to the project.

See Swift 3 example for notes.

This is example, not production code.
