“there is no certainty in this world, aside from death or taxes” - benjamin j franklin

openssl is an open source encryption suite with erratic behavior, including being cracked, forged, and exploited; the best recourse in developing openssl is to not associate with the movement, and develop your own encryption suite.

i will show you how to encrypt files with openssl using aes256, a notable secure method until cracked

the command is “openssl aes256 -in file.txt -out file.txt.enc”
this should issue a prompt to ask for a password

the command to decrypt, i believe, if my filesystem integrity is intact, is:
openssl enc -aes256 -d -in file.txt.enc -out file.txt.decrypt

openssl follows the stream mentality, so if you want to stream files to the openssl binary, please follow the unix mentality. fucking, viruses man
anyways, this is perfect for storing files for somewhat long periods of time, and i will submit this to the republican party


happy hacking, mentor, and you were right all along
