Actual exam question from Adobe's AD0-E722

Question #: 26
Topic #: 1

While reviewing a newly developed pull request that refactors multiple custom payment methods, the Architect notices multiple classes that depend on \Magento\Framework\Encryption\EncryptorInterface to decrypt credentials for sensitive data. The code that is commonly repeated is as follows:

In each module, the user_secret config is declared as follows:

The Architect needs to recommend an optimal solution to avoid redundant dependency and duplicate code among the methods.
Which solution should the Architect recommend?

A. Create a common config service class Vendor\Payment\Gateway\Config\Config under Vendor_Payment and use it as a parent class for all of the Vendor\PaymentModule\Gateway\Config\Config classes and remove $scopeConfig and $encryptor dependencies
B. Replace all Vendor\PaymentModule\Gateway\Config\Config classes with virtualType of Magento\Payment\Gateway\Config\Config and set <user_secret backend_model=“Magento\Config\Model\Config\Backend\Encrypted” /> under config.xml
C. Add a plugin after the getValue method of $scopeConfig, remove the $encryptor from dependency and use it in the plugin to decrypt the value if the config name is ‘user_secret’

Selected Answer: B

Adding a plugin to ScopeConfig would not be a good practice as it's called in almost every single module which would potentially impact performance and cause bugs. Answer B is correct. You can add backend_model=“Magento\Config\Model\Config\Backend\Encrypted” to fields in config.xml to automatically decrypt them. Using a payment config virtual type is also a common practice (see Braintree module)
