Type-7 Encryption and Decryption

Feedback
Leave it blank to use a random salt when encrypting; it will be automatically parsed from the ciphertext when decrypting.

📖 Description

Type-7 uses a fixed key string to perform byte-by-byte XOR on the plaintext, with the starting index determined by the salt (0–15). The ciphertext begins with a two-digit decimal salt, followed by the two-digit hexadecimal representation of each byte after the XOR. For example: 04 1A 2B ... (no spaces are shown on the page).
