Description
What is this course about?
In this project, you’ll develop a simple Bash-based encryption tool to understand how encryption works by implementing AES-256 encryption directly in the terminal. This project focuses on developing a user-friendly command-line tool that performs basic encryption and decryption tasks using the AES-256 standard. You will use utilities like OpenSSL, along with Bash scripting logic, to prompt users for input, process files or text, and apply secure encryption methods. The project is designed to be completed in approximately 4–6 hours.
This project was created by SkillUp Online. We are pleased to host this training in our library.
