# Pure Rust implementation of the FAEST digital signature scheme
[FAEST](https://faest.info/) is a digital signature algorithm designed to be secure against quantum
computers. The security of FAEST is based on standard cryptographic hashes and ciphers, specifically
SHA3 and AES, which are believed to remain secure against quantum adversaries.
This crate provides an implementation of FAEST written in Rust.
