Rust-crypto-maintained

A (mostly) pure-Rust implementation of various common cryptographic algorithms. Fork of Rust-Crypto by DaGenix: https://github.com/DaGenix/rust-crypto.

This fork aims to maintain Rust-Crypto because it is unmainained. It is intended to be used as a temporary replacement for Rust-Crypto. This fork is not actively maintained. New users should look for something else, for example Rust Crypto.

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 targets the current, stable build of Rust. If you are having issues while using an older version, please try upgrading to the latest stable.

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

Usage

Rust-crypto-maintained isn't on <crates.io>. To use Rust-crypto-maintained, add the following to your Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
rust-crypto-maintained = { git = "https://github.com/niluxv/rust-crypto", branch = "stable_0.2" }

and for rust edition 2015 the following to your crate root:

extern crate crypto;
