Implementation of Vigenere Cipher in PHP

Encrypt/decrypt string using Vigenere Cipher algorithm

Instalation

composer require amculin/vigenere-cipher

How to use

Encryption

use amculin\cryptography\classic\VigenereCipher;

$data = 'testtheencryptionprocess';
$key = 'thisisthekey';

//Basic mode only support lowercase alphabet
//You can use alpha_numeric mode for wider supported characters (a-z, A-Z, 0-9)
$encrypted = VigenereCipher::encrypt($data, $key, 'basic');

echo "Plain text: {$data}\n";
echo "Key: {$key}\n";
echo "Cipher Text: {$encrypted}\n";

Output:

Plain text: testtheencryptionprocess
Key: thisisthekey
Cipher Text: mlalbzxlrmvwiaqgvhkvgowq

Decryption

use amculin\cryptography\classic\VigenereCipher;

$data = 'mlalbzxlrmvwiaqgvhkvgowq';
$key = 'thisisthekey';
$decrypted = VigenereCipher::decrypt($data, $key, 'basic');

echo "Cipher text: {$data}\n";
echo "Key: {$key}\n";
echo "Plain Text: {$decrypted}\n";

Output:

Cipher Text: mlalbzxlrmvwiaqgvhkvgowq
Key: thisisthekey
Plain text: testtheencryptionprocess
