Crypt Class README
Description:
Crypt Class is a wrapper around libmcrypt_ functions, it greatly simplifies the interface and adds
new features and simplies many things. It provides an easy way to encrypt and decrypt data, it automatically
creates the IV and extracts it for you later.
Crypt Class stores the IV with the encrypted string so every time you encrypt a string it will look different
but decrypt to the original value.
Crypt Class also makes it easy to switch between encryption modes and ciphers.
Example:
Here is an example on how to encrypt the string "this is a test message" with the encryption key "test key".
<?php
// include crypt class file
include('crypt_class.php');
// create an instance of the crypt class
$crypt_class = new CRYPT_CLASS;
// set the encryption cipher to twofish
$crypt_class->set_cipher('twofish'); // set the cipher
// set the mode to cfb (you should use cfb for strings and cbc for files)
$crypt_class->set_mode('cfb'); // set encryption mode
// set the encryption key to 'test key'
$crypt_class->set_key('test key')
// this is the data we want to encrypt
$data = 'this is a test message';
// this will be the encrypted data
$encrypted = $crypt_class->encrypt($data);
// this is the decrypted data
$decrypted = $crypt_class->decrypt($encrypted);
?>
