CakePHP 3 behavior to allow (a)symmetric encryption/decryption of data by the ORM.

Special thanks to security experts [@ircmaxell](https://twitter.com/ircmaxell) & [@voodooKobra](https://twitter.com/voodooKobra) for [reviewing the work](https://twitter.com/jadb/status/688422888152657920).

**USE AT YOUR OWN RISK.**

Install
-------

[](#install)

Using [Composer](http://getcomposer.org):

```
composer require muffin/crypt

```

You then need to load the plugin. You can use the shell command:

```
bin/cake plugin load Muffin/Crypt

```

or by manually adding statement shown below to `bootstrap.php`:

```
Plugin::load('Muffin/Crypt');
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

By default, the behavior will use the `Cake\Utility\Security` and not decrypt every find operation. Both configuration could be overridden when setting up the behavior:

```
$this->addBehavior('Muffin/Crypt.Crypt', [
    'fields' => ['cc_number', 'cc_cvv'],
    'strategy' => '\Muffin\Crypt\Model\Behavior\Strategy\AsymmetricStrategy',
    'implementedEvents' => [
        'Model.beforeSave' => 'beforeSave',
        'Model.beforeFind' => 'beforeFind',
    ]
]);
```

If the fields you are encrypting are of a specific type (i.e. `POINT`), and if specified when configuring the behavior, the behavior will take care of transforming the data back and forth. If using a custom type, make sure it is added to your table.

```
$this->addBehavior('Muffin/Crypt.Crypt', [
    'fields' => ['location' => 'point'],
]);
```
