Lab93CryptographyAPI 0.0.1

A wrapper for python encryption to aid in the use of one-way and two-way encryption.

Lab93-Cryptogram

A small tool for encrypting and decrypting secrets.

Installation

pip install --upgrade Lab93Cryptogram

Usage

The CryptographyMethodsAPI object has to be instantiated before any of the inner methods can be accessed.

from Lab93Cryptogram import CryptogaphyMethodsAPI as cryptogram

SHA-256

SHA-256 offers a nearly unbreakable one-way encryption for hashing a secret meant to validate another parties identity.

username = cryptogram().SHA256( "hunter" )
password = cryptogram().SHA256( "lol you thought" )

BuildKey

In order to use two-way encryption there exists the need for a secret key known only to the parties intended to access the secret. To generate a key with the CryptographyMethodsAPI, we simply give a string to the BuildKey function; which then converts the string to a SHA256 hash and takes the first 32 bytes from the result and uses that as the key.

encryption_key = cryptogram().BuildKey( f"{username}{password}" )

Encryption

To encrypt a two-way credential, simply plug the previously built key along with the target string to the Encryption method like so.

encrypted_secret = cryptogram().Encryption( encryption_key,
                                            "This would be an API key." )

Decryption

Decryption works exactly the same as Encryption; by taking the encryption key and the target string previously encrypted it reverses the obsfuscation brough by the previous action.

decrypted_secret = cryptogram().Decryption( encryption_key,
                                            encrypted_secret )
