 * Security provides a set of methods to handle common security-related tasks.
 *
 * In particular, Security supports the following features:
 *
 * - Encryption/decryption: [[encryptByKey()]], [[decryptByKey()]], [[encryptByPassword()]] and [[decryptByPassword()]]
 * - Key derivation using standard algorithms: [[pbkdf2()]] and [[hkdf()]]
 * - Data tampering prevention: [[hashData()]] and [[validateData()]]
 * - Password validation: [[generatePasswordHash()]] and [[validatePassword()]]
 *
 * > Note: this class requires 'OpenSSL' PHP extension for random key/string generation on Windows and
 * for encryption/decryption on all platforms. For the highest security level PHP version >= 5.5.0 is recommended.
