Text Encryption & Encoding

Encrypt text with 12 methods: Caesar, Vigenère, XOR, Atbash, ROT13, Base64, Morse, Binary, Hex, Affine, Rail Fence ciphers

Encrypt and decrypt text using AES-256 encryption directly in your browser. Enter a message, set a password, and get an encrypted string that can only be decrypted with the same password. Everything runs client-side, your plaintext and password never leave your device.

Text Encryption & Encoding: a worked example

You need to store a recovery note in a shared doc but want only people with the passphrase to read it.

Input

Plaintext note + passphrase
Text Encryption & Encoding produces

Output

U2FsdGVkX1+… (AES-256-GCM ciphertext, salt + IV embedded, paste-safe Base64)

The passphrase is stretched with a key-derivation function and the text sealed with authenticated AES-256, so it cannot be silently altered and is unreadable without the passphrase. It runs locally, the point of client-side encryption is that you do not have to trust the page hosting it.

What is Text Encryption & Encoding?

Encrypt and decrypt text using AES-256 encryption directly in your browser. Enter a message, set a password, and get an encrypted string that can only be decrypted with the same password. Everything runs client-side, your plaintext and password never leave your device.

How to use

  1. 1Enter the text you want to encrypt
  2. 2Set a strong password
  3. 3Click Encrypt to generate the encrypted output
  4. 4Share the encrypted text through any channel
  5. 5The recipient pastes the encrypted text, enters the password, and clicks Decrypt

Key features

  • AES-256-GCM encryption
  • Password-based key derivation (PBKDF2)
  • Unique initialization vector per encryption
  • Base64-encoded output for easy sharing
  • Entirely client-side, nothing sent to any server
  • Decrypt mode to reverse the process with the correct password

Common use cases

  • Sharing sensitive information

    Encrypt passwords, API keys, or personal details before sending them through email or messaging apps.

  • Storing private notes

    Encrypt personal notes or journal entries so they remain private even if someone accesses the file.

  • Secure clipboard transfer

    Encrypt text before placing it on a shared clipboard or pastebin service.

  • Teaching cryptography basics

    Demonstrate symmetric encryption concepts with a hands-on tool that shows encryption and decryption in action.

How it works

The tool uses AES-256-GCM, a widely trusted symmetric encryption standard. Your password is run through a key derivation function (PBKDF2) to produce a strong encryption key, and a unique initialization vector is generated for each encryption operation. The encrypted output is Base64-encoded for easy copying and sharing. To decrypt, paste the encrypted string and enter the same password used during encryption.

Frequently asked questions

Is this encryption secure enough for sensitive data?

AES-256-GCM is considered highly secure and is used by governments and financial institutions. The strength depends on your password, use a long, unique passphrase.

What happens if I forget the password?

There is no way to recover encrypted data without the password. AES encryption is irreversible without the correct key.

Is my data sent anywhere?

No. All encryption and decryption happens in your browser using the Web Crypto API. No data is transmitted.

Can I encrypt files with this tool?

This tool is designed for text encryption only. For file encryption, you would need a dedicated file encryption utility.

Private by design

Your text is processed locally in the browser. Nothing you paste or open is transmitted or logged.
