# Encryption example

> Run the Rust and Go payload-encryption examples locally.

Both examples construct a typed payload, encrypt its envelope before enqueue would occur,
verify that stored bytes differ from plaintext, and authenticate the original bytes on
decode. They use an in-process static keyring so no database or KMS is required.

<CodeGroup>
  ```bash Rust theme={"system"}
  cargo run --manifest-path examples/rust/Cargo.toml --bin encryption
  ```

  ```bash Go theme={"system"}
  cd examples/go
  go run ./encryption
  ```
</CodeGroup>

Expected output:

```text theme={"system"}
payload encrypted before enqueue and authenticated on decode
```

The repository verification script compiles and runs both examples. For production key
rotation, threat boundaries, and encrypted handler registration, continue to the full
guide.
