StorageCipherAlgorithm

Algorithm used to encrypt stored data on Android.

Modern applications should use AES_GCM_NO_PADDING for better security. The legacy AES_CBC_PKCS7_PADDING is provided for backwards compatibility only.

Inherits: enum.Enum

Properties

• AES_CBC_PKCS7_PADDING - Legacy AES/CBC/PKCS7Padding for backwards compatibility.
• AES_GCM_NO_PADDING - AES/GCM/NoPadding (API 23+).
