Description

We ultimately want a way for Restate Server to be able to reject all non-encrypted data, to let users configure client-side encryption as a strict requirement.

To achieve that, we first need a way for Restate Server to be able to identify whether an invocation body or journal contents is actually encrypted.

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by identifying where invocation bodies and journal contents are formatted and parsed, then determine how Restate Server can reliably distinguish encrypted from non-encrypted data. Done means a standardized format exists that allows the server to identify whether each payload is encrypted.
