Encryption / Decryption Handlers

Secure your data with ease using the functions below. Simply copy and paste them into your code to encrypt sensitive information and decrypt it when needed. No hassle, just seamless security!

import crypto from 'crypto';

const IV_LENGTH = 16;

const CRYPTO_SECRET = <YOUR SECRET KEY>; // Replace with your own secret key

// * Encrypt the payload
const encryptData = (payload) => {
  const iv = crypto.randomBytes(IV_LENGTH);
  const cipher = crypto.createCipheriv('aes-256-cbc', Buffer.from(CRYPTO_SECRET, 'base64'), iv);

  let encrypted = cipher.update(JSON.stringify(payload), 'utf8', 'base64');
  encrypted += cipher.final('base64');

  return { encryptedData: encrypted, iv: iv.toString('base64') };
};

// * Decrypt the payload
const decryptData = (encryptedData, iv) => {
  const decipher = crypto.createDecipheriv(
    'aes-256-cbc',
    Buffer.from(CRYPTO_SECRET, 'base64'),
    Buffer.from(iv, 'base64')
  );

  let decrypted = decipher.update(encryptedData, 'base64', 'utf8');
  decrypted += decipher.final('utf8');

  return JSON.parse(decrypted);
};
