Interface IPiiSymmetricEncryption
Encrypts/decrypts short UTF-8 strings at rest using an authenticated envelope bound to an explicit key id.
public interface IPiiSymmetricEncryption
Methods
Decrypt(string)
Requires a valid authenticated envelope produced by this service — throws PiiDecryptException on mismatch.
string Decrypt(string storedValue)
Parameters
storedValuestring
Returns
- string
DecryptOrPassThroughLegacy(string?)
Converts stored column text to plaintext. Envelopes decrypt; non-envelope values are returned verbatim (migration / legacy plaintext). Throws PiiDecryptException for envelopes that decrypt but fail AEAD verification.
string? DecryptOrPassThroughLegacy(string? storedValue)
Parameters
storedValuestring
Returns
- string
Encrypt(string?)
Returns null when plaintext is null or empty.
string? Encrypt(string? plaintext)
Parameters
plaintextstring
Returns
- string
IsEnvelope(string?)
True when the stored value was produced by Encrypt(string?) (case-sensitive prefix).
bool IsEnvelope(string? storedValue)
Parameters
storedValuestring
Returns
- bool
ReSealWithActiveEncryptor(string)
Decrypts ciphertext (IsEnvelope(string?) true), then seals it again using the configured active encryptor (key rotation / re-pack helper).
string ReSealWithActiveEncryptor(string envelopeCiphertext)
Parameters
envelopeCiphertextstring
Returns
- string
