On recent releases, `openssl list-cipher-algorithms` will display the |

`algorithm` is the same as the `createCipher()`. `key` is a raw key used in |
|
|
|
algorithm. `iv` is an Initialization vector. `key` and `iv` must be `'binary'` |

encoded string (See the [Buffer section](buffer.html) for more information). |

`algorithm` is the same as the argument to `createCipher()`. |
