encrypt and decrypt string in php code example

Example 1: encrypt decrypt php

function encrypt_decrypt($string, $action = 'encrypt')
{
    $encrypt_method = "AES-256-CBC";
    $secret_key = 'AA74CDCC2BBRT935136HH7B63C27'; // user define private key
    $secret_iv = '5fgf5HJ5g27'; // user define secret key
    $key = hash('sha256', $secret_key);
    $iv = substr(hash('sha256', $secret_iv), 0, 16); // sha256 is hash_hmac_algo
    if ($action == 'encrypt') {
        $output = openssl_encrypt($string, $encrypt_method, $key, 0, $iv);
        $output = base64_encode($output);
    } else if ($action == 'decrypt') {
        $output = openssl_decrypt(base64_decode($string), $encrypt_method, $key, 0, $iv);
    }
    return $output;
}
 
echo "Your Encrypted password is = ". $pwd = encrypt_decrypt('spaceo', 'encrypt');
echo "Your Decrypted password is = ". encrypt_decrypt($pwd, 'decrypt');

Example 2: compare hash with plain text php

// To compare hash with plain text, use
password_verify("MySuperSafePassword!", $hashed_password)
  
// Please note, that works only with the password_hash() function.

Example 3: encrypt and decrypt python

# encrypting
from cryptography.fernet import Fernet
message = "my deep dark secret".encode()

f = Fernet(key)
encrypted = f.encrypt(message)
# decrypting
from cryptography.fernet import Fernet
encrypted = b"...encrypted bytes..."

f = Fernet(key)
decrypted = f.decrypt(encrypted)

Example 4: Encrypt in PHP openssl and decrypt in javascript CryptoJS

function CryptoJSAesEncrypt($passphrase, $plain_text){

    $salt = openssl_random_pseudo_bytes(256);
    $iv = openssl_random_pseudo_bytes(16);
    //on PHP7 can use random_bytes() istead openssl_random_pseudo_bytes()
    //or PHP5x see : https://github.com/paragonie/random_compat

    $iterations = 999;  
    $key = hash_pbkdf2("sha512", $passphrase, $salt, $iterations, 64);

    $encrypted_data = openssl_encrypt($plain_text, 'aes-256-cbc', hex2bin($key), OPENSSL_RAW_DATA, $iv);

    $data = array("ciphertext" => base64_encode($encrypted_data), "iv" => bin2hex($iv), "salt" => bin2hex($salt));
    return json_encode($data);
}

$string_json_fromPHP = CryptoJSAesEncrypt("your passphrase", "your plain text");
