=head1 NAME
Certencryption - Store strings encrypted.
This is a module which stores strings (like passwords, private keys, ...) in a secure way. Certencryption uses OpenSSL private key for encryption.
=head1 SYNOPSIS
use Certencryption;
user "root";
password decrypt($encrypted_string);
=head1 USAGE
To use this module you need a private key with which you can decrypt your data. You also need a public key with which you can encrypt your data.
=head2 KEY GENERATION
To generate a public/private keypair you can use the provided I task.
rex Certencryption:generate_key [--name=default [--size=4096]]
This will create a folder I and place the two keyfiles in it.
=head2 REXFILE
To encrypt or decrypt strings you have to include the I module in your Rexfile.
use Certencryption;
key_file "keys/default";
user "root";
password decrypt($encrypted_string);
The I command tells the module which key file it should use for the decryption. To encrypt a string you also need to have a public key. In this example the public key should be found in I.
my $base64_encrypted_string = encrypt("this is secret");
=head2 PADDING
To define which padding should be used, you can define this with the I function. The default is I. Valid padding option are:
=over 4
=item pkcs1_oaep (default)
=item pkcs1
=item sslv23 (due to a bug, only for decryption)
