Cybertection Crypto Tool (for windows only) Beta Version

CyberTection Crypto Tool v4.0 - User Guide

Overview

The CyberTection Crypto Tool is a powerful application that provides various cryptographic operations including encryption, decryption, encoding, hashing, and more. With its cyberpunk-themed interface, it offers both simple and advanced cryptographic functions in one convenient package.

Installation Requirements

Before using the tool, ensure you have these Python libraries installed:

Copy

Download

pip install cryptography Pillow requests pyperclip

Basic Usage

1. Selecting Operation Mode

• Encrypt/Decrypt: Choose whether you want to encrypt or decrypt data using the radio buttons at the top of the left panel.

2. Choosing Cryptographic Method

Select from these available options:

• Symmetric Encryption: AES, 3DES, Fernet

• Asymmetric Encryption: RSA

• Encodings: Base64, Base32, Base16, URL Encoding

• Compression: Zlib

• Simple Ciphers: XOR, ROT13

• Hashing: MD5, SHA256

3. Providing Input

• Enter your input text in the large INPUT text area on the right side

• For encryption/decryption operations, provide:

  • Key/Password: In the KEY field (can be raw text, Base64, or Hex)

  • IV (Initialization Vector): For block ciphers like AES and 3DES (optional for encryption, required for decryption)

4. Processing Data

Click the "PROCESS" button to perform the selected operation. Results will appear in the OUTPUT text area.

Detailed Instructions for Common Operations

AES/3DES Encryption

• Set mode to "Encrypt"

• Select "AES" or "3DES" as the crypto type

• Enter your key (16, 24, or 32 bytes for AES; 16 or 24 bytes for 3DES)

• Optionally provide an IV (leave blank to generate a random one)

• Enter plaintext in the input area

• Click PROCESS

• The output will show the IV used (if generated) followed by the encrypted data

AES/3DES Decryption

• Set mode to "Decrypt"

• Select "AES" or "3DES"

• Enter the same key used for encryption

• Provide the IV (must match what was used for encryption)

• Paste the encrypted data (Base64 format) in the input area

• Click PROCESS

RSA Encryption

• Set mode to "Encrypt"

• Select "RSA"

• Paste the recipient's public key (PEM format) in the key field

• Enter your plaintext message

• Click PROCESS

RSA Decryption

• Set mode to "Decrypt"

• Select "RSA"

• Paste your private key (PEM format) in the key field

• Paste the encrypted data (Base64 format)

• Click PROCESS

Fernet Encryption

• Set mode to "Encrypt"

• Select "Fernet"

• Enter a password or paste a Fernet key

• Enter your plaintext

• Click PROCESS

• Note: The tool will display the salt used for key derivation - save this if you want to decrypt later!

Base64/32/16 Encoding

• Set mode to "Encrypt" (for encoding)

• Select the appropriate base encoding

• Enter text to encode

• Click PROCESS

URL Encoding

• Set mode to "Encrypt" (for encoding)

• Select "URL Encoding"

• Enter text to encode

• Click PROCESS

Hashing (MD5, SHA256)

• Select the hash algorithm

• Enter text to hash

• Click PROCESS
  Note: These are one-way operations - no decryption possible

Advanced Features

Key Formats

The tool accepts keys in multiple formats:

• Raw text (treated as password for key derivation)

• Base64 encoded

• Hex encoded (with or without 0x prefix)

IV Handling

For block ciphers (AES, 3DES):

• IV can be provided in Base64 or Hex format

• If not provided during encryption, a secure random IV will be generated

• The generated IV is displayed with the encrypted output - you must save this for decryption!

Copying Results

Use the "COPY RESULT" button to copy just the ciphertext/result (excluding any IV information) to your clipboard.

Troubleshooting

Common Issues

• Decryption fails:

  • Ensure you're using the exact same key and IV (if applicable) used for encryption

  • Verify the input is in the correct format (usually Base64 for encrypted data)

• Invalid key errors:

  • For AES/3DES: Key must be 16, 24, or 32 bytes (AES) or 16/24 bytes (3DES)

  • For RSA: Key must be in proper PEM format

• IV required errors:

  • Block cipher decryption always requires the IV that was used for encryption

Status Bar Messages

The status bar at the bottom provides feedback:

• Green: Operation successful

• Pink: Error occurred (check output for details)

• Blue: Information/status messages

Security Notes

• Always keep your keys secure

• For production use, consider using dedicated cryptographic libraries directly

• This tool is designed for demonstration and personal use
