    copied!<p>Your code was fine except for the Base 64 encoding bit (which you mentioned was a test), the reason the output may not have made sense is that you were displaying a raw byte array (doing toString() on a byte array returns its internal Java reference, not the String representation of the <strong>contents</strong>). Here's a version that's just a teeny bit cleaned up and which prints "kyle boon" as the decoded string:</p> <pre><code>import java.security.MessageDigest; import java.util.Arrays; import javax.crypto.Cipher; import javax.crypto.SecretKey; import javax.crypto.spec.IvParameterSpec; import javax.crypto.spec.SecretKeySpec; public class TripleDESTest { public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception { String text = "kyle boon"; byte[] codedtext = new TripleDESTest().encrypt(text); String decodedtext = new TripleDESTest().decrypt(codedtext); System.out.println(codedtext); // this is a byte array, you'll just see a reference to an array System.out.println(decodedtext); // This correctly shows "kyle boon" } public byte[] encrypt(String message) throws Exception { final MessageDigest md = MessageDigest.getInstance("md5"); final byte[] digestOfPassword = md.digest("HG58YZ3CR9" .getBytes("utf-8")); final byte[] keyBytes = Arrays.copyOf(digestOfPassword, 24); for (int j = 0, k = 16; j &lt; 8;) { keyBytes[k++] = keyBytes[j++]; } final SecretKey key = new SecretKeySpec(keyBytes, "DESede"); final IvParameterSpec iv = new IvParameterSpec(new byte[8]); final Cipher cipher = Cipher.getInstance("DESede/CBC/PKCS5Padding"); cipher.init(Cipher.ENCRYPT_MODE, key, iv); final byte[] plainTextBytes = message.getBytes("utf-8"); final byte[] cipherText = cipher.doFinal(plainTextBytes); // final String encodedCipherText = new sun.misc.BASE64Encoder() // .encode(cipherText); return cipherText; } public String decrypt(byte[] message) throws Exception { final MessageDigest md = MessageDigest.getInstance("md5"); final byte[] digestOfPassword = md.digest("HG58YZ3CR9" .getBytes("utf-8")); final byte[] keyBytes = Arrays.copyOf(digestOfPassword, 24); for (int j = 0, k = 16; j &lt; 8;) { keyBytes[k++] = keyBytes[j++]; } final SecretKey key = new SecretKeySpec(keyBytes, "DESede"); final IvParameterSpec iv = new IvParameterSpec(new byte[8]); final Cipher decipher = Cipher.getInstance("DESede/CBC/PKCS5Padding"); decipher.init(Cipher.DECRYPT_MODE, key, iv); // final byte[] encData = new // sun.misc.BASE64Decoder().decodeBuffer(message); final byte[] plainText = decipher.doFinal(message); return new String(plainText, "UTF-8"); } } </code></pre>
