3DES

Conditionally Safe

Encryption algorithm

This algorithm is safe with sufficient key/output size. Grover's algorithm halves the effective security level.

Category

Encryption

Quantum Safety

Conditionally Safe

Key Lengths (bits)

168

FIPS Standard

SP 800-67 Rev. 2 (deprecated)

Deprecation Date

2023

Known Vulnerabilities

  • Sweet32 birthday attack (64-bit block)
  • Grover's algorithm
  • Meet-in-the-middle (effective 112-bit)

Migration Recommendation

Recommended post-quantum replacement:

Migrate to AES-256

Notes

Deprecated by NIST after 2023. 64-bit block size makes it vulnerable to Sweet32. Effective security of ~112 bits classically, ~56 bits post-Grover. Do not use.
