KCV Calculator (3DES) details
First, enter Key (hex) in KCV Calculator (3DES). Next, review KCV and Key length. Additionally, KCV Calculator (3DES) uses 2 input fields and 2 output blocks so the result is easy to scan and copy.
Standard payments-industry KCV: ECB-encrypt a block of 0x00 with the key under 3DES and take the first 3 (or 6) bytes of the ciphertext. Single-length keys are repeated three times; double-length keys use the K1K2K1 derivation. Runs entirely in your browser via crypto-js; your key is never transmitted.
