NAME

ronin-encrypt - Encrypts data

ronin encrypt [options] [FILE …]

Encrypts data.

FILE: The optional file to read and encrypt. If no FILE arguments are given, input will be read from stdin.

-k, --key STRING: The raw key string for the cipher.
-K, --key-file FILE: Reads the key string from the file.
-c, --cipher NAME: The cipher to encrypt with. See --list-ciphers for a list of supported ciphers. Default to aes-256-cbc if not given.
-P, --password PASSWORD: The password to encrypt with.
-H, --hash md5|sha1|sha256|sha512: The hash algorithm to use for the password. Default to sha256 if not given.
--iv STRING: Sets the Initial Vector (IV) value of the cipher.
--padding NUM: Sets the padding size, in bytes, of the encryption cipher.
-b, --block-size NUM: The size, in bytes, to read data in. Default to 16384 if not given.
--list-ciphers: List the supported ciphers and exits.
-h, --help: Print help information.

Encrypt a file using AES-256 (CBC mode) with a password:

$ ronin encrypt --cipher aes-256-cbc --password "..." file.txt > encrypted.bin

Encrypt a file using a raw key string:

$ ronin encrypt --cipher aes-256-cbc --key "12345abcdef..." file.txt > encrypted.bin

Encrypt a file using a raw key read from a file:

$ ronin encrypt --cipher aes-256-cbc --key-file key.bin file.txt > encrypted.bin

Specifying a custom IV (initialization vector):

$ ronin encrypt --cipher aes-256-cbc --key "..." --iv "..." file.txt > encrypted.bin
