Eloquent AES

This package enables an additional layer of security when handling sensitive data. Allowing key fields of your eloquent models in the database to be encrypted at rest using AES-256-CBC.

Introduction

This package allows for your Eloquent Encryption to be encrypted using a different AES-256-CBC key. This allows for your regular app:key to be rotated. If you're looking for 4096-RSA encruption then this package RichardStyles/EloquentEncryption

Installation

This package requires Laravel 8.x or higher.

You can install the package via composer:

composer require richardstyles/eloquent-aes

If you wish to change the key cipher then you will need to publish the config.

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="RichardStyles\EloquentAES\EloquentAESServiceProvider" --tag="config"

To create an Eloquent encryption key, just as you would an app key. This will automatically add to the bottom of your .env file.

php artisan key:eloquent

⚠️ Please don't forget to back up your eloquent key

If you re-run this command, you will lose access to any encrypted data!

Usage

This package leverages Laravel's own custom casting to encode/decode values.

<?php

namespace App\Models;

use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
use RichardStyles\EloquentAES\Casts\AESEncrypted;

class SalesData extends Model
{
    /**
     * The attributes that should be cast.
     *
     * @var array
     */
    protected $casts = [
        'private_data' => AESEncrypted::class,
    ];
}

There are additional casts which will cast the decrypted value into a specific data type. If there is not one that you need, simply make a PR including sufficient testing.
