Encrypter / Decrypter

Many times we wish to send a secret message to friends or family which we do not wish to be seen by anyone else. This could be Credit Card numbers or passwords or even some sensitive personal information like Aadhar Number or PAN number. Notwithstanding the encryption used by email systems and Whatsapp, if you wish to include another layer of security, this simple method is quite effective.

Just type encrypter in Google Search and select the website which comes up with a prefix of cs.franklin.edu/…… You will be presented with a box where you could type your message and click on Encrypt. Your message will now be converted to a set of random numbers. You can then copy the output of random numbers and send them via Email or WhatsApp or any other means to the receiver.

Conversely, the recipient also needs to go to the same website and paste the random numbers received and click on Decrypt – the original message will be revealed instantly.

To make it more secure, you may even include a password which you can relay separately to the recipient and then, decryption will be possible only on entering the correct password.

Very interesting for those who have to send confidential stuff often.
