GovOPlaN Encryption
Repository type: module (platform).
govoplan-encryption is the optional provider-neutral boundary for governed key
vaults, versioned content-protection envelopes, key lifecycle operations,
recovery ceremonies, and disable/uninstall assurance.
Implemented
- opaque provider capability contracts; raw key material never crosses them;
- tenant/scope-bound vault and key-version metadata;
- idempotent provision, rotation, revocation, destruction scheduling, and outcome-unknown reconciliation;
- versioned ciphertext envelopes with authenticated-context and migration provenance;
- resumable, evidence-backed rewrap, re-encryption, decrypt, export, and destroy state transitions;
- recent high-assurance, distinct-custodian quorum recovery authorization;
- typed APIs, audit-safe events, Alembic migration, and uninstall blocking;
- a bundled
local_aesgcmserver-envelope provider using AES-256-GCM and SQL-persisted wrapped vault/content keys; - owner-facing content protect/open/rewrap and two-phase re-encryption operations that never export key material;
- Files and Postbox encrypted-content adapters and fail-closed fixtures.
Provider Boundary
The bundled provider derives a deployment wrapping key from MASTER_KEY_B64 and
keeps vault and per-content keys wrapped in shared SQL state. It provides real
authenticated encryption at rest, but the application server can decrypt and
therefore this is not E2EE, an HSM/KMS assurance claim, or independent
certification. Production backup and restore must preserve the database,
ciphertext storage, and exact deployment key as separate governed assets.
No client E2EE protocol, tenant KMS/HSM driver, provider credentials, or formal certification profile is bundled. Those remain provider-specific work and must pass conformance, backup/restore, key-loss, interoperability, and security review before a stronger product claim is made.
Feature modules continue to own content, authorization, retention, and resource ownership. Access approval, resource ownership, Identity Trust, and key custody are separate decisions.
See docs/ENCRYPTION_BOUNDARY.md for the threat model, profile consequences, algorithms, recovery, and disable semantics.
