AES-256 Encrypt and Decrypt
Encrypt and decrypt text with AES-256-GCM and PBKDF2 password derivation.
About AES encryption
This tool encrypts and decrypts text with AES-256-GCM. GCM gives secrecy and also integrity, so a change to the encrypted data makes the decryption fail instead of giving wrong text.
Your password becomes a key through PBKDF2, which repeats a hash many times. This makes a guess attack slow. A new random salt and a new random nonce are used for each operation, so the same text gives different output each time.
The strength comes from the password. A short password gives weak encryption, whatever the algorithm. Use the ID & Secret Generator to make a strong passphrase.
