Library for PKCS5 v2 key derivation & and message encryption

PKCS #5 (v2.0) utilities in PHP

NB: This library is neither *complete* or *fully tested*. 
If you come across this warning, it means the code isn't suitable to rely

PKCS #5 is a specification for password-based encryption. It allows users to express the encryption algorithm, and key-derivation-function to be used with a password to derive a symmetric key., _(*1)

The scope of this library is initially limited to the primitives recommended for new implementations as described in https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2898., _(*2)

Ciphers

The library works with AES128, AES192, and AES256 ciphers., _(*3)

Key derivation function

Currently, PBKDF2 is the only supported key derivation function. It allows the use of SHA1, SHA224, SHA256, SHA384, and SHA512., _(*4)
