Bessie is an authenticated, chunked cipher based on BLAKE3. It's still in the design stages, and it's not suitable for production use.

Examples

Encrypt a message.

# fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
let key = bessie::generate_key();
let ciphertext: Vec<u8> = bessie::encrypt(&key, b"hello world");
# Ok(())
# }

Decrypt that message.

# fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
# let key = bessie::generate_key();
# let ciphertext: Vec<u8> = bessie::encrypt(&key, b"hello world");
let plaintext: Vec<u8> = bessie::decrypt(&key, &ciphertext)?;
assert_eq!(b"hello world", &plaintext[..]);
# Ok(())
# }
