"""Secret-key encryption algorithms.
|
|
|
|
Secret-key encryption algorithms transform plaintext in some way that
|
|
is dependent on a key, producing ciphertext. This transformation can
|
|
easily be reversed, if (and, hopefully, only if) one knows the key.
|
|
|
|
The encryption modules here all support the interface described in PEP
|
|
272, "API for Block Encryption Algorithms".
|
|
|
|
If you don't know which algorithm to choose, use AES because it's
|
|
standard and has undergone a fair bit of examination.

Crypto.Cipher.AES Advanced Encryption Standard

Crypto.Cipher.ARC2 Alleged RC2

|
Crypto.Cipher.ARC4 Alleged RC4

Crypto.Cipher.Blowfish
|
|
Crypto.Cipher.CAST
|
|
Crypto.Cipher.DES The Data Encryption Standard. Very commonly used
|
|
in the past, but today its 56-bit keys are too small.
|
|
Crypto.Cipher.DES3 Triple DES.
|
|
Crypto.Cipher.IDEA
|
|
Crypto.Cipher.RC5
|
|
Crypto.Cipher.XOR The simple XOR cipher.
