crypto primitives in pure rust - wasm compatible - maintained fork of rust-crypto

Cryptoxide

A pure Rust implementation of various modern cryptographic algorithms, which has no dependencies and no foreign code (specially C or assembly code). This is compatible with WASM and embedded devices.

This crates package aims to support as many architectures as possible with as little dependencies as possible.

Disclaimer: There are no warranties in use as everything is cryptographically-related

Fork information

This is a fork of Rust-Crypto by DaGenix, to which we owe a debt of gratitude for starting some good quality pure Rust implementations of various cryptographic algorithms.

Notable differences with the original sources:

• Maintained.
• Extended ED25519 support for extended secret key (64 bytes) support.
• Proper implementation of ChaChaPoly1305 (according to spec).
• Many cryptographic algorithms removed: AES, Blowfish, Fortuna, RC4, RIPEMD160, Whirlpool, MD5, SHA1.

Running benches

normally:

cargo +nightly bench --features with-bench

or with all the cpu capability enabled:

RUSTFLAGS="-C target_cpu=native" cargo +nightly bench --features with-bench

supported compiler versions

Rust	test
stable	✓
beta	✓
nightly	✓

We will always aim to support the current stable version. However, it is likely that an older version of the Rust compiler is also supported.
