| """Secret-key encryption algorithms. |
| |
| Secret-key encryption algorithms transform plaintext in some way that |
| is dependent on a key, producing ciphertext. This transformation can |
| easily be reversed, if (and, hopefully, only if) one knows the key. |
| |
| The encryption modules here all support the interface described in PEP |
| 272, "API for Block Encryption Algorithms". |
| |
| If you don't know which algorithm to choose, use AES because it's |
| standard and has undergone a fair bit of examination. |
| |
| Crypto.Cipher.AES Advanced Encryption Standard |
| Crypto.Cipher.ARC2 Alleged RC2 |
| Crypto.Cipher.ARC4 Alleged RC4 |
| Crypto.Cipher.Blowfish |
| Crypto.Cipher.CAST |
| Crypto.Cipher.DES The Data Encryption Standard. Very commonly used |
| in the past, but today its 56-bit keys are too small. |
| Crypto.Cipher.DES3 Triple DES. |
| Crypto.Cipher.IDEA |
| Crypto.Cipher.RC5 |
| Crypto.Cipher.XOR The simple XOR cipher. |
