AES_ENCRYPT

Note: AES_ENCRYPT and AES_DECRYPT are now deprecated. Please use either TINES_ENCRYPT/TINES_DECRYPT or OPENSSL_ENCRYPT/OPENSSL_DECRYPT instead.

Encrypts text using AES

The output is encoded with character set "[A-Za-z0-9+/=.]" (base64 + '.').

AES_ENCRYPT(text, key, [iv], [mode: "aead"], [expires_in])

text: The plaintext to be encrypted.

key: A 32 byte secret value to be used for encryption.

iv: A 16 byte value that must never be repeated. Note that when the "mode" is set to "aead" the iv is managed and does not need to be set.

mode: Determines how AES_ENCRYPT should behave, with the default mode being a very plain aes-256-cbc implementation and "aead" being an authenticated encryption mode designed to be safer and easier to use.

expires_in: An integer that defines the number of seconds before the ciphertext will be rejected by AES_DECRYPT, this is only available when the mode is set to "aead" and the expiration is enforced by AES_DECRYPT.
