NAME¶

File::KDBX::KDF::AES - Using the AES cipher as a key derivation function

VERSION¶

version 0.906

DESCRIPTION¶

An AES-256-based key derivation function. This is a File::KDBX::KDF subclass.

This KDF has a long, solid track record. It is supported in both KDBX3 and KDBX4.

ATTRIBUTES¶

    $rounds = $kdf->rounds;

CAVEATS¶

This module can be pretty slow when the number of rounds is high. If you have File::KDBX::XS, that will help. If your perl has "fork", that will also help. If you need to turn off one or both of these optimizations for some reason, set the "PERL_ONLY" (to prevent Loading "File::KDBX::XS") and "NO_FORK" environment variables.
