| PyCryptodome | |
| ============ | |
| PyCryptodome is a self-contained Python package of low-level | |
| cryptographic primitives. | |
| It supports Python 2.7, Python 3.7 and newer, and PyPy. | |
| You can install it with:: | |
| pip install pycryptodomex | |
| All modules are installed under the ``Cryptodome`` package. | |
| Check the pycryptodome_ project for the equivalent library that | |
| works under the ``Crypto`` package. | |
| PyCryptodome is a fork of PyCrypto. It brings several enhancements | |
| with respect to the last official version of PyCrypto (2.6.1), | |
| for instance: | |
| * Authenticated encryption modes (GCM, CCM, EAX, SIV, OCB, KW, KWP) | |
| * Hybrid Public Key Encryption (HPKE) | |
| * Accelerated AES on Intel platforms via AES-NI | |
| * First class support for PyPy | |
| * Elliptic curves cryptography (NIST P-curves; Ed25519, Ed448, Curve25519) | |
| * Better and more compact API (`nonce` and `iv` attributes for ciphers, | |
| automatic generation of random nonces and IVs, simplified CTR cipher mode, | |
| and more) | |
| * SHA-3 (including SHAKE XOFs) and BLAKE2 hash algorithms | |
| * Salsa20 and ChaCha20 stream ciphers | |
| * scrypt and HKDF | |
| * Deterministic (EC)DSA and EdDSA | |
| * Password-protected PKCS#8 key containers | |
| * Shamir's Secret Sharing scheme | |
| * Random numbers get sourced directly from the OS (and not from a CSPRNG in userspace) | |
| * Simplified install process, including better support for Windows | |
| * Cleaner RSA and DSA key generation (largely based on FIPS 186-4) | |
| * Major clean ups and simplification of the code base | |
| PyCryptodome is not a wrapper to a separate C library like *OpenSSL*. | |
| To the largest possible extent, algorithms are implemented in pure Python. | |
| Only the pieces that are extremely critical to performance (e.g. block ciphers) | |
| are implemented as C extensions. | |
