IP address encryption and obfuscation methods

IPCrypt

A Python implementation of IP address encryption and obfuscation methods as defined in the IPCrypt specification.

Features

IPCrypt provides several methods for encrypting and obfuscating IP addresses:

• Deterministic: Deterministic, format-preserving IP address encryption
• ND (Non-deterministic): Non-deterministic IP address encryption with random padding
• NDX (Non-deterministic Extended): Extended non-deterministic encryption with variable-length output
• PFX (Prefix-preserving): Prefix-preserving IP address encryption

All methods support both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses.

Installation

Install using pip:

pip install ipcrypt

Usage

Deterministic Encryption

from ipcrypt import deterministic_encrypt, deterministic_decrypt

# Encrypt an IP address
key = b'sixteen byte key'  # 16-byte key for AES-128
encrypted = deterministic_encrypt('192.168.1.1', key)
print(f"Encrypted: {encrypted}")

# Decrypt it back
decrypted = deterministic_decrypt(encrypted, key)
print(f"Decrypted: {decrypted}")

Non-deterministic Encryption (ND)

from ipcrypt import nd_encrypt, nd_decrypt

key = b'sixteen byte key'
encrypted = nd_encrypt('192.168.1.1', key)
print(f"Encrypted: {encrypted}")

decrypted = nd_decrypt(encrypted, key)
print(f"Decrypted: {decrypted}")

Non-deterministic Extended (NDX)

from ipcrypt import ndx_encrypt, ndx_decrypt

key = b'sixteen byte key'
encrypted = ndx_encrypt('192.168.1.1', key)
print(f"Encrypted: {encrypted}")

decrypted = ndx_decrypt(encrypted, key)
print(f"Decrypted: {decrypted}")

Prefix-preserving Encryption (PFX)

from ipcrypt import pfx_encrypt, pfx_decrypt

key = b'sixteen byte key'
prefix_len = 8  # Preserve first 8 bits

# Encrypt while preserving prefix
encrypted = pfx_encrypt('192.168.1.1', key, prefix_len)
print(f"Encrypted: {encrypted}")

# Decrypt it back
decrypted = pfx_decrypt(encrypted, key, prefix_len)
print(f"Decrypted: {decrypted}")
