------------------------------------
Also posting [~andrew.wang]'s pointer to a good read:
https://www.2uo.de/myths-about-urandom/
I think one way to balance security and efficiency is we cache the crypto codec
and decryptor for decrypt / re-encrypt, but keep generate the same way - since
the random generator is only used when {{generateEncryptedKey}}.
