Methods

public function __construct( string $cipher = string, bool $useSigning = bool );

Phalcon\Crypt constructor.

public function decrypt( string $text, string $key = null ): string;

Decrypts an encrypted text.

$encrypted = $crypt->decrypt(
    $encrypted,
    "T4\xb1\x8d\xa9\x98\x05\\\x8c\xbe\x1d\x07&[\x99\x18\xa4~Lc1\xbeW\xb3"
);
public function decryptBase64( string $text, mixed $key = null, bool $safe = bool ): string;

Decrypt a text that is coded as a base64 string.

public function encrypt( string $text, string $key = null ): string;

Encrypts a text.

$encrypted = $crypt->encrypt(
    "Top secret",
    "T4\xb1\x8d\xa9\x98\x05\\\x8c\xbe\x1d\x07&[\x99\x18\xa4~Lc1\xbeW\xb3"
);
public function encryptBase64( string $text, mixed $key = null, bool $safe = bool ): string;

Encrypts a text returning the result as a base64 string.

public function getAuthData(): string;

Returns the auth data

public function getAuthTag(): string;

Returns the auth tag

public function getAuthTagLength(): int;

Returns the auth tag length

public function getAvailableCiphers(): array;

Returns a list of available ciphers.

public function getAvailableHashAlgos(): array;

Return a list of registered hashing algorithms suitable for hash_hmac.

public function getCipher(): string;

Returns the current cipher

public function getHashAlgo(): string;

Get the name of hashing algorithm.

public function getKey(): string;

Returns the encryption key

public function setAuthData( string $data ): CryptInterface;
public function setAuthTag( string $tag ): CryptInterface;
public function setAuthTagLength( int $length ): CryptInterface;
public function setCipher( string $cipher ): CryptInterface;

Sets the cipher algorithm for data encryption and decryption.

The `aes-256-gcm’ is the preferable cipher, but it is not usable until the openssl library is upgraded, which is available in PHP 7.1.

The `aes-256-ctr’ is arguably the best choice for cipher algorithm for current openssl library version.

public function setHashAlgo( string $hashAlgo ): CryptInterface;

Set the name of hashing algorithm.

public function setKey( string $key ): CryptInterface;

Sets the encryption key.

The `$key’ should have been previously generated in a cryptographically safe way.

Bad key: “le password”

Better (but still unsafe): “#1dj8$=dp?.ak//j1V$~%*0X”

Good key: “T4\xb1\x8d\xa9\x98\x05\\x8c\xbe\x1d\x07&[\x99\x18\xa4~Lc1\xbeW\xb3”

public function setPadding( int $scheme ): CryptInterface;

Changes the padding scheme used.

public function useSigning( bool $useSigning ): CryptInterface;

Sets if the calculating message digest must used.

protected function assertCipherIsAvailable( string $cipher ): void;

Assert the cipher is available.

protected function assertHashAlgorithmAvailable( string $hashAlgo ): void;

Assert the hash algorithm is available.

protected function cryptPadText( string $text, string $mode, int $blockSize, int $paddingType ): string;

Pads texts before encryption. See cryptopad

protected function cryptUnpadText( string $text, string $mode, int $blockSize, int $paddingType );

Removes a padding from a text.

If the function detects that the text was not padded, it will return it unmodified.

protected function getIvLength( string $cipher ): int;

Initialize available cipher algorithms.

protected function initializeAvailableCiphers(): void;

Initialize available cipher algorithms.
