<?php
// The $key must be kept confidential
$key = sodium_crypto_secretbox_keygen();
// Do not reuse $nonce with the same key
$nonce = random_bytes(SODIUM_CRYPTO_SECRETBOX_NONCEBYTES);
$plaintext = "message to be encrypted";
$ciphertext = sodium_crypto_secretbox($plaintext, $nonce, $key);
var_dump(bin2hex($ciphertext));
// The same nonce and key are required to decrypt the $ciphertext
var_dump(sodium_crypto_secretbox_open($ciphertext, $nonce, $key));
?>
Résultat de l'exemple ci-dessus est similaire à :
string(78) "3a1fa3e9f7b72ef8be51d40abf8e296c6899c185d07b18b4c93e7f26aa776d24c50852cd6b1076"
string(23) "message to be encrypted"
