How to generate Diffie Hellman key pair in Node.JS

Super easy using crypto library. You can create a file called DiffieHellmanKeyPairGeneration.js for example and paste this code inside: console.log('\n- --- ( Diffie Hellman Key Pair Generator ) --- -'); var crypto = require('crypto'); var bitSize = 2048; var dh = crypto.createDiffieHellman(bitSize); dh.generateKeys(); console.log('Private Key:

How to list supported Ciphers, Hashes, and Curves for Crypto in Node.JS

Not a complicated task. Here is the code: var crypto = require('crypto'); console.log(); console.log('[ SUPPORTED CIPHERS ]\n') console.log(crypto.getCiphers()); console.log(); console.log('[ SUPPORTED HASHES ]\n') console.log(crypto.getHashes()); console.log(); console.log('[ SUPPORTED CURVES ]\n') console.log(crypto.getCurves()); Your output

How to Encrypt / Decrypt with AES in Node.JS

Easy as pie! var crypto = require('crypto'); var AES128 = "aes128"; var AES192 = "aes192"; var AES256 = "aes256"; var password = 'Austin'; var plainText = 'Texas to the bone!'; // ------------------------------------------------ var cipher = crypto.createCipher(AES128, password); var decipher = crypto.createDecipher(AES128, password); console.log('AES-128:'); // Encrypting with AES128 var encText = cipher.update(

How to Encode / Decode to / from base64 in Node.JS

Today I ran into this basic problem. A quick search on google gave me the answer, I tested it, it worked, and the rest is history. Here is the code. let plainText = "Hello World!"; console.log("Plaint text = " + plainText); // Encoding to base64 let base64 = new Buffer(plainText).toString('base64'); console.

How to Encrypt / Decrypt with AES in Java 1.8

Here I have created a class that does it in two different ways, the first one is, when you create the key, and the other is when you are given the key, valid key sizes are 128, 192, and 256 for AES algorithm. There is some steps to follow before

With JSON files of around 900 lines, this option is very useful to have an organized view. I highly recommend to check the links, there is a lot of things you can do with Visual Studio Code, my version is 1.10.2, and the following shortcuts are working. Ctrl+

How to generate X.509 certificate in Java 1.8

Here is how to do it, the simplest way, to generate the base64 string. No complications with KeyStores or things like that. I must say that I found this code in several places over the Internet. When I tried to run it I had some exceptions, I solved them, at
