Overview

The algorithm used for encrypting and decrypting Message objects.

It uses AES-256-GCM. It will generate a random IV for non deterministic encryption (default) or derive an initialization vector from the encrypted content for deterministic encryption.

See Aes256Gcm.

#decrypt(encrypted_message, key:)

Decrypt the provided Message.

When key is an ::Array, it will try all the keys raising a Errors::Decryption if none works.
