@irfanshadikrishad/cipher

A versatile and secure cryptographic library for implementing various cipher algorithms in Node.js applications with zero/0 dependencies.

🚀 Installation

Install the package via npm:

npm install @irfanshadikrishad/cipher

yarn:

yarn add @irfanshadikrishad/cipher

bun:

bun add @irfanshadikrishad/cipher

📖 Usage

Import the library and use a cipher algorithm:

import { Cipher } from '@irfanshadikrishad/cipher'

// Create a Caesar Cipher instance with a shift of 6
const caesar = new Cipher.Caesar(6)

console.log(caesar.encrypt('hello world')) // Output: "nkrru cuxrj"

🔐 Supported Ciphers

This library provides implementations of various classical and modern ciphers:

| Cipher | Type | Key required? | Strength | Used In/Notes | | --------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------- | ------------- | --------- | --------------------------------------------------- | | Caesar Cipher | Substitution | No | Low | Ancient Rome, Simple Obsfuscation | | Atbash Cipher | Substitution | No | Low | Hebrew Cipher, Basic Encryption | | Playfair Cipher | Diagraph-based | Yes | Medium | Used in WWI & WWII | | Vigenère Cipher | Polyalphabetic | Yes | Medium | Used in Historical Documents | | The Alphabet Cipher | Polyalphabetic | Yes | Medium | Inspired by Vigenere, Cryptography Puzzles | | Salsa20 | Stream Cipher | Yes | High | Modern Cryptography, Secure Communications | | ADFGVX | Polybius Square + Columnar Transposition | Yes | Medium | Used in WWI, Known for 6x6 polybius square | | AES | Symmetric Block Cipher | Yes | High | Also known as, Rijndael | | DES | Symmetric Block Cipher | Yes | Medium | 56-bit key, Used in legacy systems, replaced by AES | | ECC | Asymmetric (Public-Key Cryptography) | Yes | Very High | Used in modern systems like Bitcoin, TLS, JWT, etc. | | ROT13 | Substitution (Caesar variant) | No | Very Low | Simple text obfuscation, not secure |

More ciphers coming soon...
