# Rust-Crypto
[](https://travis-ci.org/DaGenix/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 targets the current, stable build of Rust.
If you are having issues while using an older version, please try upgrading to the latest stable.
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:
```toml
[dependencies]
rust-crypto = "^0.2"
```
and the following to your crate root:
```rust
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.
## License
Rust-Crypto is dual licensed under the MIT and Apache 2.0 licenses, the same licenses
as the Rust compiler.
## Algorithms
Rust-Crypto already supports a significant number of algorithms and with your help
it will support even more in the future. Currently supported algorithms include:
* AES
* Bcrypt
* Blake2B
* Blowfish
* ChaCha20
* Curve25519
* ECB, CBC, and CTR block cipher modes
* Ed25519
* Fortuna
* Ghash
* HC128
* HMAC
* MD5
* PBKDF2
* PKCS padding for CBC block cipher mode
* Poly1305
* RC4
* RIPEMD-160
* Salsa20 and XSalsa20
* Scrypt
* Sha1
* Sha2 (All fixed output size variants)
* Sosemanuk
* Whirlpool
