Rust-Crypto

A (mostly) pure-Rust implementation of various common cryptographic algorithms.

Rust-Crypto seeks to create practical, auditable, pure-Rust implementations of common cryptographic algorithms with a minimum amount of assembly code where appropriate. The x86-64, x86, and ARM architectures are supported, although the x86-64 architecture receives the most testing.

Rust-Crypto tagets the current, stable build of the Rust language (currently 1.3). If you are having issues while using an older version, please try upgrading to the latest stable Rust version.

Rust-Crypto has not been thoroughly audited for correctness, so any use where security is important is not recommended at this time.

Usage

To use Rust-Crypto, add the following to your Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
rust-crypto = "^0.2"

and the following to your crate root:

extern crate crypto;

Contributions

Contributions are extremely welcome. The most significant needs are help adding documentation, implementing new algorithms, and general cleanup and improvement of the code. By submitting a pull request you are agreeing to make you work available under the license terms of the Rust-Crypto project.
