RSA or AES encryption externals?

barry threw's icon

Are there any existing externals implementing any kind of dual key
encryption?

Thanks,

what exactly do you want to encrypt within a max patch? or is it meant for max data to be passed between computer or over a network?
what do you need the encryption for?

For keeping secrets.

well, my attempt to help this is as defined as your description.
try bitshifting, eventually.

I'm not aware of any. Do you care if it's Java? With a quick google for "java aes" and some copy/paste coding you could probably have it up and running in an mxj external fairly easily.

Barry wants to encrypt his patch and then load it up at start time with his extern with the key embedded in it so people can't steal all his toys.

Yeah, I found a few of those now... Thanks. There are some JS
implementations too.
I'll probably go that route...I should only have to run it rarely.

Believe me, my toys anybody can have. Other people aren't so giving
with their IP however.

Wrong guess though.

Hey Barry,

I remember seeing something like an RSA implementation in Max externals on a Japanese website about 1.5 years ago. Perhaps you could get in touch with the Tokyo Max list and see if they could narrow it down for you.

I spent some time on this and came back to read the above, *sigh*.
