Encrypting JSON data

[timber sonnet]

Hey Steve, I implemented your code, here is how I worked it into my structure.

{
    
    private byte[] key;
    private byte[] IV;
    public KeyData(string key)
    {
        var bytes = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(key);
        this.key = new byte[32];
        if (bytes.Length < 32)
        {
            Array.Copy(bytes, this.key, bytes.Length);
        }
        else
        {
            Array.Copy(bytes, this.key, 32);
        }

        using (Aes aes = Aes.Create())
        {
            aes.Key = this.key;
            IV = aes.IV;
        }
    }

    public byte[] GetKeyBytes()
    {
        return key;
    }

    public byte[] GetIVBytes()
    {
        return IV;
    }
}```

{
    _menuData.levelInfos.Clear();
    foreach (var obj in _levelObjects)
    {
        var levelData = obj.GetComponent<Level>();
        if (levelData.LevelName != "")
        {
            _menuData.levelInfos.Add(
                new LevelInfo(levelData.LevelName,
                    levelData.Verified, levelData.FastestTime));
        }
        
    }

    var json = JsonUtility.ToJson(_menuData);
    var dataBytes = LevelEditor.DefaultEncrypt(new KeyData(LevelEditor.key), Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(json));
    File.WriteAllBytes(_dataPath, dataBytes);
}

/// <summary>
/// Opens the level json list file and creates the level objects
/// </summary>
public void Open()
{
    var file = File.ReadAllBytes(_dataPath);
    var dataBytes = LevelEditor.DefaultDecrypt(new KeyData(LevelEditor.key), file);
    var json = Encoding.ASCII.GetString(dataBytes);
    print(json);
    _menuData = JsonUtility.FromJson<LevelMenuData>(json);```

issue now is that the data doesnt decrypt properly, only partially

yes, because you need to pass the same KeyData into the decrypt that you used in the encrypt

Yep i did end up figuring that out. Haven't had any errors since. Thank you so much for your patience
