RustCrypto: Authenticated Encryption with Associated Data (AEAD) Algorithms
September 3, 2025 ยท View on GitHub
Collection of Authenticated Encryption with Associated Data (AEAD) algorithms written in pure Rust.
AEADs are high-level symmetric encryption primitives which defend against a wide range of potential attacks (i.e. IND-CCA3).
Usage
Crates functionality is expressed in terms of traits defined in the aead
crate.
