How to use AES256 Text Encryption
Encrypt or decrypt text using AES-256-GCM and a password-derived key (PBKDF2-SHA256, 100,000 iterations). The envelope includes random salt, nonce and authentication tag. This tool processes bounded inputs on this server without retaining submitted content.
- Set Text.
- Set Secret.
- Set Mode.
- Run the tool, review the result and its stated limitations, then copy or download if needed.
Example & practical use
Encrypt or decrypt text using AES-256-GCM and a password-derived key (PBKDF2-SHA256, 100,000 iterations). The envelope includes random salt, nonce and authentication tag. This tool processes bounded inputs on this server without retaining submitted content. The example below demonstrates Text; Secret; Mode.
Example input:
{
"text": "Private message",
"secret": "A sufficiently long passphrase",
"mode": "encrypt"
}
Expected result (relevant fields):
{
"algorithm": "AES-256-GCM"
