What Encrypt / Decrypt Text does

Encrypt / Decrypt Text is a browser-based utility for symmetric encryption and decryption of short messages. Users input text and a password to encrypt, then use the same password to recover the original content. The tool supports multiple algorithms—including AES, TripleDES, Rabbit, and RC4—allowing selection based on security preferences or compatibility needs. The output is designed for direct copying and sharing of secured text without requiring external software installation. It serves as a quick solution for individuals needing to protect confidential snippets of information on the fly.

  • No persistent storage; all processing occurs within the browser session.
Questions

Encrypt / Decrypt Text FAQ

Can I use this tool to encrypt large documents or files?
No, this tool is designed for short-message symmetric encryption and may not support large documents or files.
What happens if I lose the password I used to encrypt my text?
If the password is lost, the encrypted text cannot be decrypted, as the password is required to recover the original content.
Is the encryption performed locally, or does the site store my data?
Encryption and decryption happen entirely within your browser; the site does not store your text or password.
Which encryption algorithm should I choose for basic security?
AES is generally recommended for basic security due to its modern standard and widespread support, but the best choice depends on your specific compatibility needs.
