How Do I Use the Online Tool to Encrypt or Decrypt Small Volumes of Data?
You can use the online tool to encrypt or decrypt data in the following procedures:
Encrypting Data
- Log in to the management console.
- Click in the upper left corner of the management console and select a region or project.
- Click . Choose .
- Click the alias of a custom key to view its details, and go to the online tool for data encryption and decryption.
- Click Encrypt. In the text box on the left, enter the data to be encrypted. For details, see Figure 1.
- Click Execute. Ciphertext of the data is displayed in the text box on the right.
- Use the current CMK to encrypt the data.
- You can click Clear to clear the entered data.
- You can click Copy to Clipboard to copy the ciphertext and save it in a local file.
Decrypting Data
- Log in to the management console.
- Click . Choose .
- You can click any non-default key in Enabled status to go to the encryption and decryption page of the online tool.
- Click Decrypt. In the text box on the left, enter the data to be decrypted. For details, see Figure 2.
- The tool will identify the original encryption CMK and use it to decrypt the data.
- However, if the CMK has been deleted, the decryption fails.
- Click Execute. Plaintext of the data is displayed in the text box on the right.
You can click Copy to Clipboard to copy the plaintext and save it in a local file.
