Hi All,
I want to insert my password into the mysql database by encrypting it
so that I can also retrieve the password. Before I was using sha1()
for encrypting password,but it is an one way method.
I want to use a function that can be decrypted . Please help me.
Thanks
Amar

DES_ENCRYPT() / DES_DECRYPT() in MySQL, or look at mcrypt in PHP:

That's how it's supposed to be. Passwords should never be stored in a
decryptable way. If a script can decrypt them, an attacker can do that
as well.
Storing just a (salted) password hash is fine. If a user forgets his
password then he should get a new one.

I have an application where I need to encrypt a bit of text, and then I
need to be able to decrypt it using a customer's key. I want to make
sure that the key to decrypt is NOT on the server anywhere, so hackers
cannot get the decrypt key, which means I cannot use a symetrical key
pair since the encryption key will need to be on the server.

So memo fields are required because I want to use a couple of 500 or so
digit safe primes for the encryption. Note that public key...

Hello,
I want to encrypt a file with its filename.
I can encrypt the file itself using the frame libraries.
How can I now best hide the filename and extension?
Within the file, ... ?
I must be able to retrieve the filename after decrypting.
The original files have random filenames and extensions.
