Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Readme

envelope-encryptor

Envelope encryption with configurable KEK (Key Encryption Key) provider.

Installation

npm install @autotelic/envelope-encryptor

Usage

AWS KMS

Using AWS KMS

import { createEnvelopeEncryptor, awsKms } from '@autotelic/envelope-encryptor'

const {
  AWS_REGION,
  KMS_KEY_ID,
  KMS_ACCESS_KEY_ID,
  KMS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY
} = process.env

const keyService = awsKms(KMS_KEY_ID, {
  region: AWS_REGION,
  credentials: {
    accessKeyId: KMS_ACCESS_KEY_ID,
    secretAccessKey: KMS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY
  }
})

const encryptor = createEnvelopeEncryptor(keyService)

const { encrypt, decrypt } = encryptor

const {
  ciphertext,
  key,
  salt
 } = await encrypt('plaintext')

const plaintext = await decrypt({
  ciphertext: ciphertext.toString(),
  key,
  salt
})

KEK from an env variable

If your KEK will be e.g. stored in a secrets manager you can pass it as a base64 encoded string. The key length must be 32 bytes, you can generate a suitable one like this: crypto.randomBytes(32).toString('base64')

import { createEnvelopeEncryptor, kekService } from '@autotelic/envelope-encryptor'

const keyService = kekService(process.env.KEY_ENCRYPTION_KEY)

const { encrypt, decrypt } = createEnvelopeEncryptor(keyService)

const {
  ciphertext,
  key,
  salt
} = await encrypt('plaintext')

const plaintext = await decrypt({
  ciphertext: ciphertext.toString(),
  key,
  salt
})

In development and testing

If you don't really need to use an actual KEK, e.g. in development or for testing, but you do need to generate DEKs (Data Encryption Key) to work with, there is a dummy KMS service. The "encrypted" key is just a base64 representation of a random buffer. This should definitely not be used in production!

import { createEnvelopeEncryptor, dummyKms } from '@autotelic/envelope-encryptor'

const keyService = dummyKms()

const { encrypt, decrypt } = createEnvelopeEncryptor(keyService)

const {
  ciphertext,
  key,
  salt
} = await encrypt('plaintext')

const plaintext = await decrypt({
  ciphertext: ciphertext.toString(),
  key,
  salt
})

Custom Key Service

You can implement a custom key service to pass to createEnvelopeEncryptor. It should be an object that provides two async functions, getDataKey and decryptDataKey.

getDataKey accepts no arguments and should return a an object containing the encrypted data encryption key (which has been encrypted by the KEK), and the plaintext data encryption key.

decryptDataKey accepts an encrypted data key and should return the plaintext data encryption key.

See the key service implementations in this module for examples.
