Cipher

A handy program to cipher texts with a simple phrase.

how does it work?

The program is very easy to use, the encryption is based on rijndael 256 bit encryption.
My purpose to create such program was because I didn't found a easy program which helped me to cipher normal texts.

This program is very suitable for encrypting OTP secrets and recovery codes by just using a phrase, this makes it alot harder for an attacker when he holds a copy of your database.

Keepass

in order to install this to your keepass you need to copy all the exe and dll files to your keepass installation directory. inside that directory you will find a folder 'plugins', just past them there and restart keepass.

once you started keepass go to tools and find the text "Cipher" on older versions it is called "QR code".

cipher's Issues

one of the verification windows still cache the password after the window was 'closed'

The Issue:

one of the verification windows still does cache the password in its visible = false state.

The Solution:

When this window gets 'closed' clear the phrase.

the result is not being deciphered inside the QR menu

when somebody generates a cipher to QR the QR shows the cipher instead of the real deciphered password.

solution:

generate the QR code with the correct deciphered text.
