RustCrypto: AES-CTR
Pure Rust implementation of the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) in Counter Mode.
Provides a high-performance implementation based on AES-NI and other x86(-64)
CPU intrinsics when available, or otherwise falls back on a bitsliced software
implementation and the ctr crate.
⚠️ Security Warning: Hazmat!
This crate does not ensure ciphertexts are authentic (i.e. by using a MAC to verify ciphertext integrity), which can lead to serious vulnerabilities if used incorrectly!
To avoid this, use an AEAD mode based on AES, such as AES-GCM or AES-GCM-SIV.
See the RustCrypto/AEADs repository for more information.
