Description
Improves handling of database encryption keys.
Motivation and Context
A recent PR hardens the codebase's handling of encrypted database fields. It stores the derived key used for encryption as a
Zeroizing
array.This work changes the key type to be a
Hidden
wrapper of aSafeArray
, which prevents unintended output of the key and tries to prevent copies and moves.How Has This Been Tested?
Existing tests pass.
