Cryptographic Utilities

Cryptographic Utilities is a JavaScript package that provides functionalities for common cryptographic tasks such as hashing, encryption, and decryption.

Installation

To install Cryptographic Utilities, simply run:

npm install cryptographic-utils

Usage

const CryptoUtils = require('cryptographic-utils');

// Hashing
const hashedData = CryptoUtils.hash('Hello, world!');
console.log('Hashed data:', hashedData);

// Encryption
const key = 'mySecretKey';
const encryptedData = CryptoUtils.encrypt('Sensitive information', key);
console.log('Encrypted data:', encryptedData);

// Decryption
const decryptedData = CryptoUtils.decrypt(encryptedData, key);
console.log('Decrypted data:', decryptedData);

API

CryptoUtils.hash(data, algorithm)

Hashes the provided data using the specified algorithm (default is SHA-256) and returns the hashed value as a hexadecimal string.

CryptoUtils.encrypt(data, key, algorithm)

Encrypts the provided data using the specified key and algorithm (default is AES-256-CBC) and returns the encrypted value as a hexadecimal string.

CryptoUtils.decrypt(data, key, algorithm)
