  33. PyCryptodome
  34. ============
  35. PyCryptodome is a self-contained Python package of low-level
  36. cryptographic primitives.
  37. It supports Python 2.7, Python 3.7 and newer, and PyPy.
  38. You can install it with::
  39. pip install pycryptodome
  40. All modules are installed under the ``Crypto`` package.
  41. Check the pycryptodomex_ project for the equivalent library that
  42. works under the ``Cryptodome`` package.
  43. PyCryptodome is a fork of PyCrypto. It brings several enhancements
  44. with respect to the last official version of PyCrypto (2.6.1),
  45. for instance:
  46. * Authenticated encryption modes (GCM, CCM, EAX, SIV, OCB, KW, KWP)
  47. * Hybrid Public Key Encryption (HPKE)
  48. * Accelerated AES on Intel platforms via AES-NI
  49. * First class support for PyPy
  50. * Elliptic curves cryptography (NIST P-curves; Ed25519, Ed448, Curve25519)
  51. * Better and more compact API (`nonce` and `iv` attributes for ciphers,
  52. automatic generation of random nonces and IVs, simplified CTR cipher mode,
  53. and more)
  54. * SHA-3 (including SHAKE XOFs) and BLAKE2 hash algorithms
  55. * Salsa20 and ChaCha20 stream ciphers
  56. * scrypt and HKDF
  57. * Deterministic (EC)DSA and EdDSA
  58. * Password-protected PKCS#8 key containers
  59. * Shamir's Secret Sharing scheme
  60. * Random numbers get sourced directly from the OS (and not from a CSPRNG in userspace)
  61. * Simplified install process, including better support for Windows
  62. * Cleaner RSA and DSA key generation (largely based on FIPS 186-4)
  63. * Major clean ups and simplification of the code base
  64. PyCryptodome is not a wrapper to a separate C library like *OpenSSL*.
  65. To the largest possible extent, algorithms are implemented in pure Python.
  66. Only the pieces that are extremely critical to performance (e.g. block ciphers)
  67. are implemented as C extensions.
  68. For more information, see the `homepage`_.
  69. All the code can be downloaded from `GitHub`_.
