Functions

func Decrypt

func Decrypt(password string, cipherstring string) (plain []byte, err error)

Decrypt decrypts a ciphertext from the cipherstring using the password. Uses AES-256-GCM (an authenticated encryption mode) to encrypt and decrypt data, password will be derived with PBKDF2 and 100.000 iterations. Because of this high iteration count the encryption and decryption process takes a minimum of around 200ms.

func Encrypt

func Encrypt(password string, plaintext []byte) (cipherstring string, err error)

Encrypt encrypts a plaintext using the password. Uses AES-256-GCM (an authenticated encryption mode) to encrypt and decrypt data, password will be derived with PBKDF2 and 100.000 iterations. Because of this high iteration count the encryption and decryption process takes a minimum of around 200ms.
