Greetings,
A lower thread discussing Crypto-SIGs has prompted me to release my
Advanced Encryption Suite module for python. I hope it will prove useful to
people wishing to implement the latest cryptographic algorithms.
Get it at:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/pyaes
Features:
- Rijndael with 128,192,256 bit keys (ECB mode only for now)
- NIST's SHA256
- Elliptic Curves in GF^233
- TSEPRNG, a new, easy, CSPRNG (work in progress, check out sci.crypt)
- Happy Docs
Caveats:
- ECDSA is not working yet due to freelip issues.
- You'll need SWIG to build it.
- Only Unix Makefile included. (sorry win people)
Enjoy and keep in mind this is a work in progress. I was prompted to
release it by discussion in this newgroup. Newer releases will be cleaner.
The suite was developped for another, larger project and thus, pyAES
updates will be on hold until it is completed (could be a few months).
Please don't hesitate to inform me of any difficulties you encounter while
using this module.
