I agree it may be best to restart this effort -- I made a first pass at
resolving some of the issues
[here](https://github.com/alopresto/nifi/tree/NIFI-2961) but there is still
work to do. There's no argument that the original EncryptContent processor
organization can be improved, especially with a new processor which is
performing a lot of the same behavior, as it was originally written many years
ago.
I am currently working on implementing encrypted repositories and the
internal TLS refactor as well as quick fixes for [Allow bootstrap process to
prompt for key](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-2656) and [First
deployment of NiFi can hang on VMs without sufficient entropy if using
/dev/random/](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-3113). Do you have an
immediate need for the EncryptAttribute functionality, or can it wait a few
weeks?
