What is Text Encryption & Decryption?
Text Encryption is the process of converting plain text into a coded format (ciphertext) to prevent unauthorized access. Decryption is the reverse process that converts ciphertext back to readable plain text. Our tool provides multiple encryption methods suitable for different security needs, from simple encoding to classic ciphers.

Supported Encryption Methods
Base64 Encoding
Base64 is a binary-to-text encoding scheme that represents binary data in an ASCII string format. It's commonly used to encode data that needs to be stored and transferred over media designed to deal with text.
ROT13 Cipher
ROT13 is a simple letter substitution cipher that replaces a letter with the 13th letter after it in the alphabet. It's a special case of the Caesar cipher and is its own inverse - the same operation decrypts the text.
Reverse Text
This method simply reverses the order of characters in the text. While not secure for serious encryption, it provides basic obfuscation and is useful for certain applications.
Binary Encoding
Converts text to binary code, where each character is represented by a sequence of 8 bits (0s and 1s). This is the fundamental language of computers.
Hexadecimal Encoding
Converts text to hexadecimal (base-16) representation, where each byte is represented by two hexadecimal digits (0-9, A-F).
Atbash Cipher
A substitution cipher originally used for the Hebrew alphabet, where the first letter is replaced with the last, second with second last, and so on.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this tool secure for sensitive information?
While our tool provides basic encryption methods, they are not suitable for highly sensitive information. Base64 is encoding, not encryption, and the other methods are classical ciphers that provide minimal security. For sensitive data, use modern encryption like AES with proper key management.
Can I use these encrypted texts in my applications?
Yes, all methods produce standard formats that can be used in applications. Base64 is widely used in web development, while the other methods can be useful for basic obfuscation or educational purposes.
Why use ROT13 if it's not secure?
ROT13 is useful for hiding spoilers in text, creating simple puzzles, or as an educational tool to understand substitution ciphers. It's not meant for serious security but serves specific light-use cases.
Do I need special software to decrypt these texts?
No, our tool can decrypt any text encrypted with the supported methods. For programmatic use, most programming languages have built-in functions for Base64 and simple string manipulation for the other methods.
