> The Cipher Processors bundle includes EncryptContentAge and DecryptContentAge 
> as well as VerifyContentMAC. The age-encryption.org Processors required the 
> Bouncy Castle Provider to work on Java 8 when they were introduced for NiFi 
> 1. With Java 11 providing support for X25519 and ChaCha20-Poly1305, and with 
> NiFi 2 requiring Java 21, Bouncy Castle is no longer needed as a security 
> provider. The VerifyContentMAC Processor uses the Hex utility class from 
> Bouncy Castle, which can be replaced with the Java HexFormat class to remove 
> all references to the Bouncy Castle library from the module.
