RustCrypto: Key Wrapping Functions

dependency status Apache2/MIT licensed

Collection of symmetric Key Wrapping Functions (KW) written in pure Rust.

About

"Key Wrapping" describes symmetric encryption algorithms designed for encrypting cryptographic key material under another symmetric key, known as a "Key-Encrypting-Key" (KEK).

They're intended for applications such as protecting keys while in untrusted storage or transmitting keys over untrusted communications networks.

Supported Algorithms

NOTE: for modern proven KWs (e.g. AES-SIV, AES-GCM-SIV), please see RustCrypto/AEADs
