public final class DES extends Cipher implements SymmetricCipher
This algorithm has been seriously analysed over the last 30 years, and no significant weaknesses have been reported. Its only known flaw is that the key length of 56 bits makes it relatively easy to brute-force it.
To overcome this near-fatal flaw, it is recommended that DES be used in Triple DES mode. The JCA algorithm name for the recommended form of Triple DES is "DES-EDE3/CBC", which is implemented by the DES_EDE3 and CBC DES was written by IBM and first released in 1976. The algorithm is freely usable for both single and triple encryption.
