!!! Overview
[{$pagename}] is a multi-language, cross-platform, [Cryptosystem] implemented as an [Open Source] [Software library] that provides [cryptographic] [APIs] that are [secure], easy to use correctly, and hard(er) to misuse.[{$pagename}] reduces common crypto pitfalls with user-centered design, careful [implementation] and code reviews, and extensive testing. [{$pagename}] developed by [Google], [{$pagename}] and is already being used to secure data of many products such as AdMob, [Google] Pay, Google Assistant, [Firebase], the Android Search App, etc.[{$pagename}] is an alternative to [OpenSSL] and was based on [BoringSSL][{$pagename}] [Cryptographic Primitives]
* [Authenticated Encryption] with associated data (primitive: [AEAD])
* [Message Authentication Code] (primitive: [MAC]),
* [Digital Signature] (primitives: PublicKeySign and PublicKeyVerify)
* hybrid encryption (primitives: HybridEncrypt and HybridDecrypt).
General properties of all primitives:
* [stateless] (hence thread-safe)
* copy-safe (for the [parameters])
* at least 128-[bit] security (with an exception for [RSA])!! More Information
