## What it is
A Spring Boot integration of the Jasypt library that enables transparent encryption and decryption of property sources in Spring Boot applications. It supports encryptable properties across the whole Spring Environment via a starter dependency or annotations.

## Use cases
- encrypt database passwords in application.properties
- hide secrets in Spring Boot config files
- decrypt encrypted properties at runtime in Spring
- secure credentials in Spring Boot application.yml
- use ENC() encrypted values in Spring environment
- protect sensitive config values in a Spring Boot webapp

## When to choose
- you use Spring Boot and need encrypted properties out of the box
- you want secrets in config files without external vault infrastructure
- you need per-property-source encryption control via annotations

## When to avoid
- you need full secrets management with rotation and auditing (use Vault or cloud KMS)
- your project is not Spring Boot based
- you need encryption of data at rest beyond configuration properties

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: active
- function: security, cryptography, configuration-management, secrets-management
- domain: security, developer-tools, backend, web-development
- platform: jvm
- tags: jasypt, spring-boot, encryptable-properties, property-encryption, spring-boot-starter, secrets-in-config
