use openssl commandline as symmetric cryptography tool
to encrypt a string using 3des algorithm:
echo 'somecleartext'|openssl enc -e -des3 -K 'some_key_in_hex' -iv 'some_iv_in_hex' |base64
to decrypt a 3des encrypted string:
echo 'somecipher'|base64 -d|openssl enc -d -des3 -K 'some_key_in_hex' -iv 'some_iv_in_hex'
a bunch of symmetric encryption alorithms are supported, like AES, DES, blowfish etc:
