Modern PHP supports modern encryption: Sodium. This new interface provides a set of opinionated cryptographic primitives that help prevent you from making a costly mistake. Sodium allows symmetric encryption, public/private encryption, and data signing just like you’re used to in other languages. It’s also native to PHP as of version 7.2.

Learn about the new encryption layer provided by PHP and put your new knowledge into action with a hands-on workshop. Attendees will work with an existing application to add a layer of encryption, protecting its data both at rest and in transit.
