4. Perform File and Text Message Encryption using cryptoforge

CryptoForge is a file encryption software for personal and professional data security. It allows you to protect the privacy of sensitive files, folders, or email messages by encrypting them with strong encryption algorithms. Once the information has been encrypted, it can be stored on insecure media or transmitted on an insecure network—

After encryption, extension changes to cfe. a copy of file is made in the same location.

Navigate to file. Right click it and select to encrypt. Give it a password and its encrypted

Navigate to encrypted file, Right click to decrypt it

There is also cryptoforge text, that encrypts the text with password. Type a message and click Encrypt from the toolbar.

The Enter Passphrase - CryptoForge Text dialog-box appears; type a password in the Passphrase field, retype it in the Confirm field, and click OK.

The message that you have typed will be encrypted.

Similarly, you can decrypt it.

5. Perform File encryption using Advanced encryption package

For decoding, paste the encoded text and click decode.

6. Perform Multi-layer Hashing using CyberChef

CyberChef enables a wide array of "cyber" tasks directly in browser. It offers a wide range of operations and transformations, from basic text manipulation to complex cryptographic functions which include various hashing techniques such as MD5, SHA-1, SHA-256, SHA-512, etc., and encoding techniques such as text to hexadecimal, binary, Base64, or URL encoding.

A multi-layer hash typically refers to a hierarchical or nested structure of hash functions applied successively to data. Instead of just applying a single hash function to a piece of data, multiple hash functions are employed in layers or stages, with the output of one hash function serving as the input to the next one.

Create a new text file Secret.txt and open it. Write some text in it (here, My Account number is 0234569198) and press Ctrl+S to save the file. Close the text file.

Launch any web browser, and visit

CyberChefgchq.github.io

CyberChef website appears, click on Open file as input button present at the top of the Input section. Upload the file.

The contents of the Secret.txt file will be displayed in the Input window.

Now, we will calculate MD5 hash of the Secret.txt file, to do so, in the search field present under Operations section, type md5 and drag MD5 from the results in the Operations section in to the Recipe section.Alternatively, you can expand Hashing node in the Operations section and select MD5 algorithm.

The tool calculates the MD5 hash of the given input file and displays the output in the Output section.

Similarly, You can calculate different types of Hashes.
