What is meant by Laravel - Encryption ?

Answer Posted / amit khanna

Encryption is a process of converting a plain text to a message using some algorithms such that any third user cannot read the information.

This is helpful for transmitting sensitive information because there are fewer chances for an intruder to target the information transferred.

Encryption is performed using a process called Cryptography.

The text which is to be encrypted is termed as Plain Text and the text or the message obtained after the encryption is called Cipher Text.

The process of converting cipher text to plain text is called Decryption.

Laravel uses AES-256 and AES-128 encrypter, which uses Open SSL for encryption.

All the values included in Laravel are signed using the protocol Message Authentication Code so that the underlying value cannot be tampered with once it is encrypted.
