在MS SQL Server中解密PHP的mcrypt_encrypt

Question

I have PHP encrypting data and saving it to a table inside a Microsoft SQL Server using the mcrypt_encrypt function. I'm wondering if it's possible to decrypt the data from the table through SQL Server?

I'm familiar with the ENCRYPTBYKEY and DECRYPTBYKEY functions, but am unable to use that because this SQL Server is shared and restricts creating certificates/keys.

I was hoping there would be a function like MySQL's AES_ENCRYPT and AES_DECRYPT so the key can be specified as a string, but I'm not seeing one so I'm resorting to PHP to encrypt.

Answer 1

I was able to solve this without PHP. I found functions EncryptByPassphrase and DecryptByPassphrase in MS SQL that will suit my needs.
