Cryptography

Libraries

• golang/crypto - Go cryptography libraries
• CryptoJS - JS implementations of standard and secure cryptographic algorithms
• liblithium - lightweight cryptography library that is portable by design

Utilities

• git-crypt - "git-crypt enables transparent encryption and decryption of files in a git repository. Files which you choose to protect are encrypted when committed, and decrypted when checked out."
• Safemess - "Online encryption service for your messages"

Actors

Full background on the fictional characters here...

• Alice and Bob - The original, generic characters. Generally, Alice and Bob want to exchange a message or cryptographic key.
• Carol, Carlos or Charlie - A generic third participant.
• Chuck - A third participant, usually of malicious intent.[14]
• Craig - A password cracker, often encountered in situations with stored passwords.
• Dan, Dave or David - A generic fourth participant.
• Erin - A generic fifth participant, but rarely used, as "E" is usually reserved for Eve.
• Eve - An eavesdropper, who is usually a passive attacker. While they can listen in on messages between Alice and Bob, they cannot modify them. In quantum cryptography, Eve may also represent the environment.[clarification needed]
• Faythe - A trusted advisor, courier or intermediary. Faythe is used infrequently, and is associated with faith and faithfulness. Faythe may be a repository of key service or courier of shared secrets.[citation needed]
