Symmetric encryption, derived keys, plaintext validation, and key rotation for Switon Framework.

Highlights
----------

[](#highlights)

- **One encryption contract:** `CipherInterface` keeps app code on one reversible boundary.
- **Plaintext validation:** `ValidatorInterface` checks decrypted text before acceptance.
- **Rotation support:** `RotatingCipher` keeps legacy ciphertext readable during migration windows.
- **Key generation:** `KeyCommand` prints fresh application keys.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

```
composer require switon/crypto
```

Quick Start
-----------

[](#quick-start)

After you wire `CipherInterface` in `switon.yml`, inject it and use normal `encrypt()` / `decrypt()` calls.

```
namespace App\Service;

use Switon\Core\Attribute\Autowired;
use Switon\Crypto\CipherInterface;

final class UserSecretService
{
    #[Autowired] protected CipherInterface $cipher;

    public function encryptProfile(string $payload): string
    {
        return $this->cipher->encrypt($payload, 'tenant:acme');
    }
}
```
