How to encrypt and decrypt String with my passphrase in Java Pc not mobile platform

Question

I want to encrypt a string and then put it on a file  Also want to decrypt it when I want   I don   t need very strong security  I just want to make it harder to get my data others   I tried several ways  Here are these   Md5 Encryption   How to hash a string in Android   public static final String md5 final String toEncrypt            try               final MessageDigest digest   MessageDigest getInstance  md5                digest update toEncrypt getBytes                 final byte   bytes   digest digest                final StringBuilder sb   new StringBuilder                for  int i   0  i  lt  bytes length  i                      sb append String format   02X   bytes i                               return sb toString   toLowerCase              catch  Exception exc                return        Impossibru                    I tried this function and able to encrypt a string but I can   t decrypt data from it  So it is not the solution   DES Encryption   Encrypt and decrypt a String in java  Here passphrase is Auto generated  Is always passphrase will same on all time  Then where is my security  So it is not my solution too   AES Encryption   How do I encrypt decrypt a string with another string as a password   I also tried Aes from this link  Here key is also auto generated   Is there any other way

I just want to add that if you want to somehow store the encrypted byte array as String and then retrieve it and decrypt it  often for obfuscation of database values  you can use this approach   import java security Key  import javax crypto Cipher  import javax crypto spec SecretKeySpec  public class StrongAES        public void run                  try                        String text    Hello World               String key    Bar12345Bar12345      128 bit key                Create key and cipher             Key aesKey   new SecretKeySpec key getBytes     AES                Cipher cipher   Cipher getInstance  AES                   encrypt the text             cipher init Cipher ENCRYPT MODE  aesKey               byte   encrypted   cipher doFinal text getBytes                  StringBuilder sb   new StringBuilder                for  byte b  encrypted                    sb append  char b                                 the encrypted String             String enc   sb toString                System out println  encrypted     enc                   now convert the string to byte array                for decryption             byte   bb   new byte enc length                 for  int i 0  i lt enc length    i                      bb i     byte  enc charAt i                                 decrypt the text             cipher init Cipher DECRYPT MODE  aesKey               String decrypted   new String cipher doFinal bb                System err println  decrypted     decrypted                      catch Exception e                         e printStackTrace                        public static void main String   args                 StrongAES app   new StrongAES            app run

My requirement was to keep the password in a config file in encrypted form and decrypt when the program runs  For this I used the jasypt library  jasypt-1 9 3 jar   This is a very good library and we can accomplish the task with just 4 lines of code   First  after adding jar to my project I imported the below library   import org jasypt util text AES256TextEncryptor    Then I created the below method  I then called this method by passing the text which I need to encrypt in password parameter  Using aesEncryptor encrypt method  I encrypted the password which is stored to the myEncryptedPassword variable      public void EncryptPassword String password           AES256TextEncryptor aesEncryptor   new AES256TextEncryptor        aesEncryptor setPassword  mypassword        String myEncryptedPassword   aesEncryptor encrypt password       System out println myEncryptedPassword               You might have noticed the method setPassword method and the value mypassword is used in the above code  This is to make sure that no one can decrypt the password even if they use the encrypted password using the same library   Now I can see the value in the myEncryptedPassword variable something like h9oJ4P5P8ToRy38wvK11PUQCBrT1oH zbMWuMrbOlI0rfZrj qSg6f u0jctOs ZUf9t3shiwnEt05 nq8bnag    This is the encrypted password  Keep this value in the config file   I then created the below method to decrypt the password to be used in my program  The value of passwordFromConfigFile is the encrypted text which I got from the EncryptPassword method  Note that you have to use the same password in the aesEncryptor setPassword method that you used to encrypt the password   public String DecryptPassword String passwordFromConfigFile                   AES256TextEncryptor aesEncryptor   new AES256TextEncryptor        aesEncryptor setPassword  mypassword        String decryptedPassword   aesEncryptor decrypt passwordFromConfigFile       return decryptedPassword         The variable decryptedPassword will now have the decrypted password value
