Hi Mr Newbie,
Joshua is right when saying you should be carefull using tech's you
might not fully understand ( just like me, ;-) )
Perhaps RAND_bytes() is enough for your needs ?

I am guessing it could be profitable for you to read :

Hi,
You can use random bytes as symmetric key.
See RAND_bytes() function to get random bytes from your selected
random number generator (by default it's the OpenSSL integrated PRNG).
Set the key (and the IV) in any symmetric algorithm by using
EVP_EncryptInit_ex() function if you use EVPs.
You ca
