It can be built into PHP [T] mcrypt is intended to be a replacement of the old unix [T] crypt(1) under the GNU General Public License. Unix Crypt(1) [T] was a popular(?) file encryption program in unix boxes. It [T] was based on the enigma encryption algorithm but it was [T] considerable trivialized. Since this was not adequate, even [T] for individual privacy needs, I decided to create a similar [T] program using some modern block encryption algorithms. Mcrypt [T] also has a compatibility mode with unix crypt(1) and with [T] solaris des(1). It supports all the algorithms and modes [T] found in libmcrypt and it is very extendable. At the time [T] writing this, it supports the algorithms: BLOWFISH, TWOFISH, [T] DES, TripleDES, 3-WAY, SAFER, LOKI97, GOST, RC2, MARS, [T] RIJNDAEL, SERPENT, CAST, ARCFOUR and WAKE. Block algorithms [T] are implemented in modes: CFB, CBC, CTR, ECB, OFB (8 bit and [T] n bit, where n is the size of the algorithm's block length).
