def decryption_keys(encrypted_message)
  if encrypted_message.headers.encrypted_data_key_id
    keys_grouped_by_id[encrypted_message.headers.encrypted_data_key_id]
  else
    @keys
  end
end

#encryption_key ⇒ Object

Returns the first key in the list as the active key to perform encryptions

When ActiveRecord::Encryption.config.store_key_references is true, the key will include a public tag referencing the key itself. That key will be stored in the public headers of the encrypted message
