Wildcard Aes256 Generate Key Openssl
encrypt_openssl.txt
For symmetic encryption, you can use the following: |
To encrypt: |
openssl aes-256-cbc -salt -a -e -in plaintext.txt -out encrypted.txt |
To decrypt: |
openssl aes-256-cbc -salt -a -d -in encrypted.txt -out plaintext.txt |
For Asymmetric encryption you must first generate your private key and extract the public key. |
openssl genrsa -aes256 -out private.key 8912 |
openssl -in private.key -pubout -out public.key |
To encrypt: |
openssl rsautl -encrypt -pubin -inkey public.key -in plaintext.txt -out encrypted.txt |
To decrypt: |
openssl rsautl -decrypt -inkey private.key -in encrypted.txt -out plaintext.txt |

You can't directly encrypt a large file using rsautl. instead, do something like the following: |
Generate a key using openssl rand, eg. openssl rand 32 -out keyfile |
Encrypt the key file using openssl rsautl |
Encrypt the data using openssl enc, using the generated key from step 1. |
Package the encrypted key file with the encrypted data. the recipient will need to decrypt the key with their private key, then decrypt the data with the resulting key. |
Ultimate solution for safe and high secured encode anyone file in OpenSSL and command-line: |
You should have ready some X.509 certificate for encrypt files in PEM format. |
NOTE: You can generated a X.509 certificate using: |
Private key generation (encrypted private key): |
openssl genrsa -aes256 -out private.pem 8912 |
openssl -in private.pem -pubout -out public.pem |
With unecrypted private key: |
openssl req -x509 -nodes -days 100000 -newkey rsa:8912 -keyout private_key.pem -out certificate.pem |
With encrypted private key: |
openssl req -x509 -days 100000 -newkey rsa:8912 -keyout private_key.pem -out certificate.pem |
With existing encrypted (unecrypted) private key: |
openssl req -x509 -new -days 100000 -key private_key.pem -out certificate.pem |
To encrypt: |
openssl smime -encrypt -binary -aes-256-cbc -in plainfile.zip -out encrypted.zip.enc -outform PEM yourSslCertificate.pem |
openssl smime -encrypt -binary -aes-256-cbc -in plainfile.zip -out encrypted.zip.enc -outform DER yourSslCertificate.pem |
For text files: |
openssl smime -encrypt -aes-256-cbc -in input.txt -out output.txt -outform DER yourSslCertificate.pem |
openssl smime -encrypt -aes-256-cbc -in input.txt -out output.txt -outform PEM yourSslCertificate.pem |
What is what: |
smime - ssl command for S/MIME utility (smime(1)) |
-encrypt - chosen method for file process |
-binary - use safe file process. Normally the input message is converted to 'canonical' format as required by the S/MIME specification, this switch disable it. It is necessary for all binary files (like a images, sounds, ZIP archives). |
-aes-256-cbc - chosen cipher AES in 256 bit for encryption (strong). If not specified 40 bit RC2 is used (very weak). (Supported ciphers) |
-in plainfile.zip - input file name |
-out encrypted.zip.enc - output file name |
-outform DER - encode output file as binary. If is not specified, file is encoded by base64 and file size will be increased by 30%. |
yourSslCertificate.pem - file name of your certificate's. That should be in PEM format. |
That command can very effectively a strongly encrypt any file regardless of its size or format. |
To decrypt: |
openssl smime -decrypt -binary -in encrypted.zip.enc -inform DER -out decrypted.zip -inkey private.key -passin pass:your_password |
openssl smime -decrypt -binary -in encrypted.zip.enc -inform PEM -out decrypted.zip -inkey private.key -passin pass:your_password |
For text files: |
openssl smime -decrypt -in encrypted_input.txt -inform DER -out decrypted_input.zip -inkey private.key -passin pass:your_password |
openssl smime -decrypt -in encrypted_input.txt -inform PEM -out decrypted_input.zip -inkey private.key -passin pass:your_password |
What is what: |
-inform DER - same as -outform above |
-inkey private.key - file name of your private key. That should be in PEM format and can be encrypted by password. |
-passin pass:your_password - your password for private key encrypt. (http://www.openssl.org/docs/apps/openssl.html#PASS_PHRASE_ARGUMENTS) |

- Generate an OpenSSL Certificate Request with SHA256 Signature Google have recently announced that they are going to start reporting that SSL certificates that are signed with a SHA-1 Hash will be treated as having a lower security than those signed with newer, higher strength hashes such as SHA-256 or SHA-512.

You can try with -aes256 at the begining so your first command would be openssl genrsa -aes256 -out private.key 2048 – Saxtheowl Oct 1 '19 at 21:57 It works now, I will update my question so others can use it – Tux Oct 2 '19 at 9:41. Free download honda lawn tractor 4514h shop manual.

Can we use public key directly with smime commmand for encryption of a large file? |
