▼ Description

[Encrypt_BlowFish] encrypts a string. Accepts two parameters, a string to be encrypted and a -Seed keyword with the key or password for the encryption.

Ideally, the -Seed should be a long phrase rather than a simple password. The exact same -Seed must be used when decrypting the text using [Decrypt_BlowFish]. If the seed is forgotten there is no way to retrieve the original value of the encrypted text.

Note: The BlowFish tags are not binary-data safe. The encrypted string will be truncated at the first null character. To encrypt binary data first pass it through the [Encode_Base64] or [Encode_UTF8] tag.

▼ Syntax

[Encrypt_BlowFish: -Seed='Password', 'Encrypt Value']

▼ Parameters

Required Parameters
Encrypt Value	The string which should be encrypted.
-Seed	The password which will be used to encrypt the string. The same password must be specified when the data is decrypted.

▼ Examples

To encrypt a string using the BlowFish algorithm:

Use the [Encrypt_BlowFish] tag with a long -Seed argument. The following tag encrypts a phrase using a whimsical -Seed argument.

[Encrypt_Blowfish: -Seed='I sell seashells down by the sea shore!',
'The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog.']
