    //on PHP7 can use random_bytes() istead openssl_random_pseudo_bytes()
    //or PHP5x see : https://github.com/paragonie/random_compat

    $data = array("ciphertext" => base64_encode($encrypted_data), "iv" => bin2hex($iv), "salt" => bin2hex($salt));
    return json_encode($data);

$string_json_fromPHP = CryptoJSAesEncrypt("your passphrase", "your plain text");
