Encryption of files

Encryption of files


In Python, it is possible to encrypt and decrypt files before transmitting to a communication channel. For this, you will have to use the plugin PyCrypto. You can installation this plugin using the command given below.
pip install pycrypto
PyCrypto

Code

The program code for encrypting the file with password protector is mentioned below −
# =================Other Configuration================
# Usages :
usage = "usage: %prog [options] "
# Version
Version="%prog 0.0.1"
# ====================================================
# Import Modules
import optparse, sys,os
from toolkit import processor as ps
def main():
   parser = optparse.OptionParser(usage = usage,version = Version)
   parser.add_option(
      '-i','--input',type = 'string',dest = 'inputfile',
      help = "File Input Path For Encryption", default = None)
   
   parser.add_option(
      '-o','--output',type = "string",dest = 'outputfile',
      help = "File Output Path For Saving Encrypter Cipher",default = ".")
	
   parser.add_option(
      '-p','--password',type = "string",dest = 'password',
      help = "Provide Password For Encrypting File",default = None)
	
   parser.add_option(
      '-p','--password',type = "string",dest = 'password',
      help = "Provide Password For Encrypting File",default = None)
	
   (options, args)= parser.parse_args()
	
   # Input Conditions Checkings
   if not options.inputfile or not os.path.isfile(options.inputfile):
      print " [Error] Please Specify Input File Path"
      exit(0)
   if not options.outputfile or not os.path.isdir(options.outputfile):
      print " [Error] Please Specify Output Path"
      exit(0)
   if not options.password:
      print " [Error] No Password Input"
      exit(0)
   inputfile = options.inputfile

   outputfile = os.path.join(
      options.outputfile,os.path.basename(options.inputfile).split('.')[0]+'.ssb')
   password = options.password
   base = os.path.basename(inputfile).split('.')[1]
   work = "E"

   ps.FileCipher(inputfile,outputfile,password,work)
   return

   if __name__ == '__main__':
   main()
You can use the following command to execute the encryption process along with password −
python pyfilecipher-encrypt.py -i file_path_for_encryption -o output_path -p password

Output

You can observe the following output when you execute the code given above −
Encryption Process

Explanation

The passwords are generated using MD5 hash algorithm and the values are stored in simply safe backup files in Windows system, which includes the values as displayed below −
