# class OpenSSL::Cipher

- OpenSSL::Cipher
- Reference
- Object

##
Overview

A class which can be used to encrypt and decrypt data using a specified cipher.

    require "random/secure"

    key = Random::Secure.random_bytes(64) # You can also use OpenSSL::Cipher#random_key to do this same thing
    iv = Random::Secure.random_bytes(32)  # You can also use OpenSSL::Cipher#random_iv to do this same thing

    def encrypt(data)
      cipher = OpenSSL::Cipher.new("aes-256-cbc")
      cipher.encrypt
      cipher.key = key
      cipher.iv = iv

      io = IO::Memory.new
      io.write(cipher.update(data))
      io.write(cipher.final)
      io.rewind

      io.to_slice
    end

    def decrypt(data)
      cipher = OpenSSL::Cipher.new("aes-256-cbc")
      cipher.decrypt
      cipher.key = key
      cipher.iv = iv

      io = IO::Memory.new
      io.write(cipher.update(data))
      io.write(cipher.final)
      io.rewind

      io.gets_to_end
    end
