StringEncrypt — String & File Encryption for Python Developers

StringEncrypt allows you to encrypt strings and files using
a randomly generated algorithm, generating a unique decryption code
(so-called polymorphic code) each time in the selected programming language.

The problem with plain text strings

I'm a developer, and I love programming. I'm also an avid reverse engineer. I perform a wide array of software analysis in my daily work and sometimes I find things in compiled applications that shouldn't be exposed to the
first person with a simple hex-editor in hand.

What can be found in application binaries?

Everything! I've listed a few examples of the things I found below.
Sometimes these things shouldn't even be included in applications
at all (they are there due to poor design choices or rushed work),
but some are just cannot be avoided.

  • Database passwords
  • FTP passwords
  • Login credentials
  • Encryption & decryption keys
  • Custom code scripts in readable text
  • Complex SQL queries in plain text
  • Hidden website endpoints
  • BitCoin wallets locations
  • ...and many more

Ask yourself, did you ever put some sensitive content in your software that you later regret?

Why should I care?

If any of these things were to fall into the wrong hands, they could be
used to compromise your software or your infrastructure.

You don't want this to happen to your software.

Take for example database passwords. A competitor could use them
to view your database structure or dump all of its contents. You don't want to lose all your hard work because someone with a simple hex-editor can discover your password in plain text.

The solution — String Encrypt

I've decided to create a simple service called String Encrypt for developers, offering fast string & file encryption without the need to write custom encryption tools over and over again because I did that many times.

String Encrypt can help you hide the things that shouldn't be visible at first glance to anyone with a hex-editor.

Say hello to polymorphic encryption!

Forget about simple xor encryption! StringEncrypt comes with a unique encryption engine.

It's a polymorphic encryption engine, similar to the encryption methods used by the software protection solutions and advanced computer viruses.

How it works?

Let me explain how the polymorphic encryption process works.

  1. A random set of encryption commands is selected (xor, addition, subtraction, bit rotations, bit shifts, logical negation etc.).
  2. A random set of helper encryption keys is generated.
  3. Every byte of the input string is encrypted with every encryption command in the random set.
  4. The decryption code in the selected programming language is generated with a reverse set of encryption commands.

More about polymorphic engines:

What does it mean?

The encrypted content is different every time you apply StringEncrypt encryption to it.

The algorithm is always unique, the encryption keys are always randomly selected and the decryption code is also unique for every time you use our encryption.

StringEncrypt features

  • Out of box support for UNICODE (WideChar type in C/C++ languages), UTF-8 (multibyte) & ANSI (single byte) strings encodings
  • Configurable minimum & maximum number of encryption commands
  • Different ways to store the encrypted string (as a global or local variable if the selected programming language supports it)
  • Wide array of supported programming languages
  • You can automate the encryption process in your builds using our WebAPI interface (PHP and Python bindings)

Available editions

StringEncrypt can be used:

How to use StringEncrypt from Python 3 code?

The preferred way of StringEncrypt module installation is via pip.

Run:

pip install stringencrypt
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

or

python3 -m pip install stringencrypt
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

And then add this import to your source code:

from stringencrypt import StringEncrypt
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

The installation package is available at https://pypi.org/project/stringencrypt/

Its source code is available at GitHub:

Purchase activation code

To remove the limitations and support our project and its development, you need to buy an activation code at:

https://www.stringencrypt.com/buy/

Each activation code has an assigned number of usage credits. You can use the software in full version as many times as you have usage credits on your account balance.

How to get a free activation code?

You can get a free activation code (500 usage credits) if you can advertise StringEncrypt service with a link to the project site https://www.stringencrypt.com/ at:

  • Programming forums
  • Programming blogs
  • Technical articles
  • Twitter / Facebook / other social media site
  • ...or any other website related to programming and development

Send me all the details at my contact address and if it's legit - bam!, you got yourself a free code :)

Changelog

[1.0.0] - 2021-01-03

  • Initial release of a StringEncrypt Python 3 module

Fin

I hope you like it and you will try it at least :)
