README

LimePie is a method and tool to encrypt and decrypt sensitive information in domain events.

It consists of a theoretical part that describes

  • how keys are specified
  • how domain events are processed and which of their fields are en- and decrypted

and of programmed parts:

  • implementations of key handling and en-/decryption in multiple Languages: Elixir, Ruby
  • a test suite that actually encrypts the jobvalley domain events with one implementation and decrypts the result with another

General

The underlying encryption algorithm is AES-256-GCM, that is the Advanced Encryption Standard block cipher with 256 bit keys in the Galois Counter Mode. The biggest error anyone can do when using AES-256-GCM is to reuse an initialization vector (IV) key pair. NEVER USE THE SAME IV TWICE! If you reuse an IV, you might as well post your secret key on Twitter.

Test suite

converting all files with all implemtation combinations

# pending, not implemented yet
bin/convert_all_domain_events_with_all_encoders_and_decoders

converting a single file

Example:

bin/convert --encoder elixir \
            --decoder elixir \
domain-events/bounded-contexts/freigabe/events/arbeitszeit-abgelehnt/event-specs/default.json
