Encrypting your data

henspace edited this page Mar 18, 2015 · 1 revision
iKog-js allows you to encrypt parts of the task description. This is simply achieved by using the <secret></secret> or <private></private> tag before the text you want encrypted. You can also use the short versions, and

, to save typing. Any part of the task description after the tag will be encrypted. When you enter the task, you will be asked to provide the encryption phrase; the stronger you make this the harder it will be for anyone to decode it. The encryption used is AES256. + This task has some secret information <secret></secret>this is hidden or you could have entered. + This task has some secret information this is hidden + This task has some secret information <private></private>this is hidden + This task has some secret information

this is hidden

When the task is displayed, you will see:

 + This task has some secret information ***

To reveal the hidden text, you need to use the SHOW or SH command. So to reveal the current task use any of the following:

 SHOW ^
 SHOW .
 SH ^
 SH .

To reveal a specific task, use SHOW N. E.g.

 SHOW 6
 SH 7

When you ask to reveal the hidden text, you will be prompted to enter the password. If you get it wrong the text will remain hidden. There is nothing to stop you using different passwords for each task,but if you do, I hope your memory's up to it. If you lose your password, that's it I'm afraid; there's no getting it back.
