The data you're talking is some configuration file or something? The application that use this data ... can decrypt the data?, or could you add this functionality to those applications... i think your using symmetric cryptography... that's easy... you have to use the EVP librery...
if not... your loss... that's the meaning of security... confidentiality and message integrity (and authentication sometimes...)
