Net::SS...256_CBC(3)

✨ NAME ✨

okay so bestie, this is Net::SSH::Perl::Cipher::AES256 — literally just a wrapper for SSH AES256 CBC support 💖 and yes she lives in the Net::SS...256_CBC(3) corner of the User Contributed Perl Documentation, we love a truncated header moment 🎀

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

use Net::SSH::Perl::Cipher;
my $cipher = Net::SSH::Perl::Cipher->new('AES256_CBC', $key);
print $cipher->encrypt($plaintext);

that's it that's the whole vibe ✨

---

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

so like, Net::SSH::Perl::Cipher::AES256_CBC is the girl who provides AES256 encryption support for Net::SSH::Perl 🫶 she doesn't do it alone though — she wraps around Crypt::OpenSSL::AES, which is a C/XS wrapper of the OpenSSL AES library functions 🌈 iconic collaboration fr fr, no cap.
