Encrypting and Decrypting data on iOS

Question

I am working on an iOS application where a user will have an encryption key and I want to be able:

create an encryption/decrption key
encrypt data
decrypt data

I have no idea how to do either because I have never worked with iOS encryption before.

Thank you

P.S. The server I am using to send the encrypted data back and forth is a Node.JS if that changes anything.

What you are looking for is details on the CommonCrypto module of the Security.framework for iOS. If you want a shortcut, here is a NSData category that performs AES encryption and decryption.
