I've been using this code to upload an image : how to post an image to the web server and it works fine.
My question is : is there a way to aes-256 encrypt the image with a passphrase before sending it and decrypting it with php on the server? It's like using these functions : AES Encryption for an NSString on the iPhone but instead of NSString, NSData.
Any help would be useful.

To my idea from iOS
you convert
image
to base64
string using this link
Now encrypt
this string
int AES264
using this link
On php side
Decrypt
using this link
Decode
base64
string
using this link

this is how you achieve image encryption of images in iOS (one way at least) you can then simply post the result. but you have to find a way to exchange your encryption key. It would not be clever to simply send your keys within the same request... and if so you should at least use https
