DecryptionProvider (org.refcodes:refcodes-forwardsecrecy 1.9.9 API)

All Superinterfaces:

org.refcodes.security.Decrypter<java.lang.String,java.lang.String,org.refcodes.security.DecryptionException>

All Known Implementing Classes:

DecryptionProviderImpl
```
public interface DecryptionProvider
extends org.refcodes.security.Decrypter<java.lang.String,java.lang.String,org.refcodes.security.DecryptionException>
```
The DecryptionProvider is bound to a namespace and is being used by the business logic to decrypt data.
The DecryptionProvider provides decrypting functionality as encrypted data must be decrypted again by another service or system. This system must now be able to retrieve all known ciphers versions (by a DecryptionService) for determining the correct cipher for decrypting encrypted text (as encrypted text is prefixed by the cipher UID identifying the cipher to use for decryption).
