Functions

func Decrypt

func Decrypt(key []byte, ciphertext string) (string, error)

Decrypt decrypts an AES encrypted message using the provided key. The key must be 16, 24 or 32 byte broad to select either AES-128, AES-192 or AES-256.

func Encrypt

func Encrypt(key, plaintext []byte) (string, error)

Encrypt uses AES to securly encrypt a plaintext using the provided key. The key must be 16, 24 or 32 byte broad to select either AES-128, AES-192 or AES-256.
