Add configuration options for encryption

**Problem**
When working with services, the error messages could be more descriptive.

**Suggestion**
Improve error handling and add detailed error messages.

**Context**
This would help with debugging and maintenance.

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. First clarify whether the intended work is encryption configuration, more descriptive service errors, or both, including the options and error cases; completion should be defined before implementation begins.
