Walker.Crypto.SimpleAESEncryption

Provides simple, sync-based AES-GCM encryption and decryption with a key derived from a password. Includes helpers for secure key generation and basic parsing.

Types

AESEncryptedText

Holds AES-GCM encrypted data and its associated IV.

Fields:
- string IV: Base64-encoded initialization vector.
- string EncryptedText: Base64-encoded ciphertext.
Methods:
- string ToString(): Converts the data to a string using the format IV|EncryptedText.
- static AESEncryptedText FromUTF8String(string input): Parses a string in the IV|EncryptedText format. Throws FormatException if the input is invalid.

Methods

Encrypt(string plainText, SecureData password)

Encrypts plain text using AES-GCM. Outputs both the encrypted content and IV.

Parameters:
- plainText: Text to encrypt.
- password: Used to derive a 256-bit key.
Returns: AESEncryptedText

Decrypt(AESEncryptedText encrypted, SecureData password)

Decrypts a previously encrypted value using its IV and the original password. Returns a secure string.

Parameters:
- encrypted: The encrypted payload and IV.
- password: Used to derive the decryption key.
Returns: SecureData

Decrypt(string encryptedText, string ivBase64, SecureData password)

Takes the raw Base64 ciphertext and IV, decrypts it using the password, and returns the plain string.

Parameters:
- encryptedText: Base64 string of the ciphertext.
- ivBase64: Base64 IV.
- password: The password to derive the key.
Returns: string

GenerateRandomBytes(int size)

Creates a secure random byte array of the given size.

Parameters:
- size: How many bytes to generate.
Returns: byte[]

DeriveKey(SecureData password, int keyBytes)

Hashes the password with SHA-256 and adjusts the result to the specified byte length.

Parameters:
- password: The password to derive from.
- keyBytes: The size of the final key in bytes.
Returns: byte[]
