Encryption with FIPS

Aspose.PDF Product Family
1

We are using Aspose PDF to encrypt and password protect encrypt files. Is there anything extra we have to do for:

  1. Strong AES-256 Bit Encryption
  2. FIPS Validated Encryption Library

Thanks in advance

You do not need to do anything extra in order to implement FIPS compliance as all existing encryption algorithms are FIPS compliant in the Aspose.PDF. For AES-256 Bit Encryption, you can select/specify this algorithm in the method while encrypting the PDF like following:

doc.Encrypt(password, "password", Permission, CryptoAlgorithm.AESx256);

OR

fileSecurity.EncryptFile("aa", "aaa", Facades.DocumentPrivilege.Print, Facades.KeySize.x256, Facades.Algorithm.AES);
