  27. PyCryptodome
  28. ============
  29. PyCryptodome is a self-contained Python package of low-level
  30. cryptographic primitives.
  31. It supports Python 2.6 and 2.7, Python 3.4 and newer, and PyPy.
  32. You can install it with::
  33. pip install pycryptodomex
  34. All modules are installed under the ``Cryptodome`` package.
  35. Check the pycryptodome_ project for the equivalent library that
  36. works under the ``Crypto`` package.
  37. PyCryptodome is a fork of PyCrypto. It brings several enhancements
  38. with respect to the last official version of PyCrypto (2.6.1),
  39. for instance:
  40. * Authenticated encryption modes (GCM, CCM, EAX, SIV, OCB)
  41. * Accelerated AES on Intel platforms via AES-NI
  42. * First class support for PyPy
  43. * Elliptic curves cryptography (NIST P-256 curve only)
  44. * Better and more compact API (`nonce` and `iv` attributes for ciphers,
  45. automatic generation of random nonces and IVs, simplified CTR cipher mode,
  46. and more)
  47. * SHA-3 (including SHAKE XOFs) and BLAKE2 hash algorithms
  48. * Salsa20 and ChaCha20 stream ciphers
  49. * scrypt and HKDF
  50. * Deterministic (EC)DSA
  51. * Password-protected PKCS#8 key containers
  52. * Shamir's Secret Sharing scheme
  53. * Random numbers get sourced directly from the OS (and not from a CSPRNG in userspace)
  54. * Simplified install process, including better support for Windows
  55. * Cleaner RSA and DSA key generation (largely based on FIPS 186-4)
  56. * Major clean ups and simplification of the code base
  57. PyCryptodome is not a wrapper to a separate C library like *OpenSSL*.
  58. To the largest possible extent, algorithms are implemented in pure Python.
  59. Only the pieces that are extremely critical to performance (e.g. block ciphers)
  60. are implemented as C extensions.

  62. All the code can be downloaded from `GitHub`_.
