openssl_open

(PHP 4 >= 4.0.4, PHP 5, PHP 7)
Open sealed data
bool openssl_open ( string $sealed_data, string &$open_data, string $env_key, mixed $priv_key_id [, string $method ] )

openssl_open() opens (decrypts) sealed_data using the private key associated with the key identifier priv_key_id and the envelope key env_key, and fills open_data with the decrypted data. The envelope key is generated when the data are sealed and can only be used by one specific private key. See openssl_seal() for more information.

Parameters:
sealed_data
