[Summary]

StormByte Crypto is the cryptography module of the StormByte C++ suite.

It depends on StormByte Base and StormByte Buffer. This repository is not Base, Buffer, Config, Database, Logger, Multimedia, Network or System.

Public headers under StormByte/crypto/ cover Hasher, Compressor, Crypter (symmetric and asymmetric), Signer, Secret, KeyPair, Password and Vault. Crypto++ never leaves the private tree.

Initial public release of StormByte Crypto.

Added

  • Hasher: SHA-256, SHA-512, SHA3-256, SHA3-512, BLAKE2b, BLAKE2s (block and stream, hex digest)
  • Compressor: Zlib, Gzip, BZip2 with configurable level (block and stream)
  • Symmetric crypter: AES CBC, AES-GCM, ChaCha20-Poly1305, Camellia, Serpent, Twofish
  • Password-based keys via PBKDF2-HMAC-SHA256 (600 000 iterations)
  • Asymmetric crypter: RSA OAEP-SHA, ECC ECIES
  • Strategy::Native and Strategy::Hybrid (AES-256-GCM session key wrapped with the public key); decrypt auto-detects
  • Signer: DSA, RSA PKCS#1 v1.5 + SHA-256, ECDSA, Ed25519 (block and stream)
  • Secret: ECDH (secp256r1 / secp384r1 / secp521r1) and X25519; result is a Password
  • KeyPair generate: DSA, RSA, ECC, ECDH, ECDSA, Ed25519, X25519
  • KeyPair Save / Load: PEM and DER; public Base64; private Password; optional PKCS#8 (PBES2 + AES-256-CBC)
  • Password — shared wiped secret; last owner zeros the bytes
  • Vault — named Password store; movable, not copyable
  • Factories: Create on Hasher, Compressor, Crypter, Signer, Secret, KeyPair
  • StormByte Buffer pipelines (Consumer / Producer) on every transform
  • Exception hierarchy with component prefixes
  • Project version read from the VERSION file
  • CMake 3.28 floor

Notes

  • Installed headers do not include Crypto++. Static Crypto++ means consumers do not install it.
  • Authenticated modes and wrapped private keys fail closed on a bad password or a bad tag.
  • Needs a C++26 compiler, StormByte Base ≥ 1.0.0, StormByte Buffer ≥ 1.0.0, and Crypto++ at build time.
