Demonstrates PBES2 encryption Chilkat2 PHP

<?php

use Chilkat2\Crypt2;

// This example assumes the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
// See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

$crypt = new Crypt2();

// Set properties for PBES2 encryption:

// When the encryption algorithm is set to "pbes2",
// Chilkat will automatically derive the actual secret key using PBKDF2 and
// the specified paramters: password, salt, iteration count, hash function, and desired key length.

$crypt->CryptAlgorithm = 'pbes2';
$crypt->PbesPassword = 'mySecretPassword';

// Set the underlying PBE algorithm (and key length):
$crypt->PbesAlgorithm = 'aes';
$crypt->KeyLength = 256;

$crypt->SetEncodedIV('000102030405060708090A0B0C0D0E0F', 'hex');

// Give it some salt:
$crypt->SetEncodedSalt('0102030405060708', 'hex');

// A higher iteration count makes the algorithm more
// computationally expensive and therefore exhaustive
// searches (for breaking the encryption) is more difficult:
$crypt->IterationCount = 1024;

// A hash algorithm needs to be set for PBES2:
$crypt->HashAlgorithm = 'sha256';

// Indicate that the encrypted bytes should be returned
// as a hex string:
$crypt->EncodingMode = 'hex';

$plainText = 'To be encrypted.';

$encryptedText = $crypt->EncryptStringENC($plainText);

echo $encryptedText, "\n";

// Now decrypt:
$decryptedText = $crypt->DecryptStringENC($encryptedText);

echo $decryptedText, "\n";
