Text Encryption Tool (Simple Cipher)
Encrypt and decrypt text with Caesar Shift, Base64, and Reverse methods. Includes developer-focused options like HTML-safe mode, ignoring numbers/symbols, and multi-layer cipher chaining.
About This Encryption Tool
A modern, browser-based text encryption utility offering Caesar shift, Base64, and reverse methods with developer options. Use HTML-safe mode to protect markup, ignore numbers/symbols when shifting letters, and chain multiple ciphers with the Pipeline builder.
How to Use
- Encrypt/Decrypt: Choose a method (Caesar, Base64, Reverse), set options, and click the action button. Use “HTML Encode/Decode” to safely handle markup.
- Developer options: “Ignore numbers” and “Ignore symbols” affect Caesar (and reverse if “Reverse letters only” is enabled). “HTML-safe” escapes/decodes entities before/after processing.
- Pipeline: Add steps (e.g., Caesar→Base64→Reverse). “Run Pipeline” applies them in order; “Run Pipeline (inverse)” runs the logical inverse sequence.
Pro Tips
- For readable secure-ish text, do Caesar (shift) → Base64. To undo, run inverse pipeline.
- Use HTML Encode before inserting output into HTML to avoid breaking tags; decode to restore.
- Live preview lets you see changes as you type or toggle options.
- Remember: these are simple ciphers. Do not use for truly sensitive data.
FAQs
Q1: Why does Base64 sometimes fail to decode?
Invalid or non-Base64 characters will cause errors. Ensure the string hasn’t been altered.
Q2: What does HTML-safe do?
It escapes entities like <
, >
, and &
before processing and can decode after decryption to restore original markup safely.
Q3: Do “Ignore numbers/symbols” affect Base64?
No. They apply to Caesar shift and (optionally) reverse when “Reverse letters only” is enabled.
