Encryption, is the process of changing information in such a way as to make it unreadable by anyone except those possessing special knowledge (usually referred to as a "key") that allows them to change the information back to its original, readable form. To encrypt some value we have to use some key value that can be hard coded or we can generate key also by using this
Blob cryptoKey = Crypto.generateAesKey(256);
We have to use same key to decrypt that value.
Here I am going to share some code.Hope it will help you. I have created one visualforce page and one controller. In the page only one field(Name) is there and two button(Save & Update).
When some value is entered in the name field and clicked on save button that value will be stored in the object encrypted format. Now record id in the url and click on update button encrypted value will be converted in to original format.

it shows the error Error: Compile Error: sObject type 'EnCrypt_Decrypt__c' is not supported. If you are attempting to use a custom object, be sure to append the '__c' after the entity name. Please reference your WSDL or the describe call for the appropriate names. at line 10 column 23
Thanks for the post. I have a quick question regarding the algorithm. As I know we have use the same key to encrypt and decrypt the text, so part from storing the same in custom setting or label. Is thier any other way we can do it in run time.
I have a scenario where the encryption and decryption happens on different transactions not in same transactions hence in the code I Ccant use the same. So wanted to know if there is any other possible way

You may want to create a "Text (encrypted)" custom field manually and use it in your VF, APEX code.
