This documentation outlines the integration of the Symmetric DES Engine component. It is designed as a reusable OutSystems module for implementing Data Encryption Standard (DES) logic within client-side workflows.

1. Core Functionality

The component provides a standard implementation for symmetric-key cryptography, allowing for:

• Encryption: Converting plaintext into Base64-encoded ciphertext.
• Decryption: Reverting ciphertext back to its original string format.
