Encryption algorithms - lolumadd_ - 23.07.2012

Does anyone know of a good Encryption methods or algorithms? I want to make something that can allow some data to be Encrypted and Decrypted, not Hashed. So please don't reply with SHA512 or Whirlpool, that's not what I need.

The language doesn't have to be in Pawn. It can be in C++, C#, etc.

Thanks.

can you explain what the point of having encryption is, if there's a way to decrypt it?

But they would need to know the algorithm to decrypt it. What are you suggesting? Store it in plain text?

I'm sure he's more concerned with your intentions. If you're storing passwords, what's to stop you from stealing them?

I guess nothing would be stopping me from stealing them. But you have to trust the people you are giving information too. What stops Microsoft and ****** from looking at your passwords? Nothing.

I need to encrypt the data because in a application I want to make, it stores app data in a cloud. When withdrawing the information from the cloud I would need to decrypt the data. Encrypting the data would only be in the benefit of the consumer in case of a database leak or something.

i bet you will <3 the RSA encryption method
@cessil: the http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enigma_machine is an amazing piece of/in? history
