Cloak

Cloak makes it easy to use encryption with Ecto.

Features

• Transparent encryption/decryption of fields
• Bring your own encryptor (if needed)
• Zero-downtime migration to new encryption keys
  • Multiple keys in memory at once
  • Migration task to proactively migrate rows to a new key

Example

# in config/config.exs
config :cloak, Cloak.AES.CTR,
  tag: "AES",
  default: true,
  keys: [
    %{tag: <<1>>, key: :base64.decode("..."), default: true}
  ]

# in your migration
defmodule MyApp.Repo.Migrations.AddSecretKeyToModel do
  use Ecto.Migration

  def change do
    alter table(:models) do
      add :secret_key, :binary
      add :encryption_version, :binary
    end

    create index(:models, [:encryption_version])
  end
end

# in your model
defmodule MyApp.Model do
  use Ecto.Schema

  schema "models" do
    field :secret_key, Cloak.EncryptedBinaryField
    field :encryption_version, :binary
  end

  def changeset(model, params \\ :empty) do
    model
    |> cast(params, ~w(secret_key), ~w(encryption_version))
    |> put_change(:encryption_version, Cloak.version)
  end
end

# Query
MyApp.Repo.one(MyApp.Model)
# => %MyApp.Model{secret_key: "Decrypted value", encryption_version: <<"AES", 1>>}
