String open classed with AES-256 and RSA encryption and zipping methods for easy, secure, encryption of strings.
The string_encryption gem was started with the intention of being compatible with the RSA and AES algorithms used in a javascript library on http://www.pidder.com/pidcrypt . Usage and testing against the pidcrypt library hasn't been done yet, but is scheduled for the future. The intent of this library is to make encryption and decryption of a string as straight forward as capitalizing or reversing is.
To encrypt a string:
encrypted_secret = "Super Secret Text".encrypt("Super Secret Password")
To decrypt a string:
decrypted_secret = encrypted_secret.encrypt("Super Secret Password")
