DECRYPT

The DECRYPT command applies a symmetric decryption algorithm to a structured variable or memory area, checking for security checksum present at the end, to prevent data corruption or accidental tampering.

When the command is executed, the destination buffer is filled with the original data decrypted by the encryption operation. A computed value a checksum is recalculated and checked with the one on the end of the buffer, to serve as a trust seal.

Note that the size of the key must be the same as the size of the data.

SYNTAX
