Question

How to make encryption and decryption on an application’s files in sd-card? so that i may secure the files on the sdcard and no other person will be able to access outside of that application with out decryption on those files??

Is there any person who can give me any good example source to implement the encryption on android application?

Answer 1

I have written this program that will encrypt a file using AES and decrypt the same file. This will surely help you.

FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(new File("D:/Shashank/Test123.txt"));
        File outfile = new File("D:/Shashank/encTest1234.txt");
        int read;
        if(!outfile.exists())
            outfile.createNewFile();
        File decfile = new File("D:/Shashank/dec123.txt");
        if(!decfile.exists())
            decfile.createNewFile();
        FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream(outfile);
        FileInputStream encfis = new FileInputStream(outfile);
        FileOutputStream decfos = new FileOutputStream(decfile);
        Cipher encipher = Cipher.getInstance("AES");
        Cipher decipher = Cipher.getInstance("AES");
        KeyGenerator kgen = KeyGenerator.getInstance("AES");
        SecretKey skey = kgen.generateKey();
        encipher.init(Cipher.ENCRYPT_MODE, skey);
        CipherInputStream cis = new CipherInputStream(fis, encipher);
        decipher.init(Cipher.DECRYPT_MODE, skey);
        CipherOutputStream cos = new CipherOutputStream(decfos,decipher);
        while((read = cis.read())!=-1)
                {
                    fos.write((char)read);
                    fos.flush();
                }   
        fos.close();
        while((read=encfis.read())!=-1)
        {
            cos.write(read);
            cos.flush();
        }
    cos.close();
