python3-cryptography

Python library exposing cryptographic recipes and primitives (Python 3)

Description

The cryptography library is designed to be a "one-stop-shop" for all your cryptographic needs in Python.

As an alternative to the libraries that came before it, cryptography tries to address some of the issues with those libraries:

- Lack of PyPy and Python 3 support.

- Lack of maintenance.

- Use of poor implementations of algorithms (i.e. ones with known

side-channel attacks).

- Lack of high level, "Cryptography for humans", APIs.

- Absence of algorithms such as AES-GCM.

- Poor introspectability, and thus poor testability.

- Extremely error prone APIs, and bad defaults.

This package contains the Python 3 version of cryptography.
