About

PKCS#5 is a standard for deriving cryptographic keys from a password using a variety of supported algorithms, and then encrypting/decrypting data (e.g. PKCS#8 private keys) using that derived key.

This crate supports deriving keys from passwords using either the scrypt or pbkdf2 algorithms.
