# rainbow
This (implementation of an) cryptographic algorithm is insecure.
This crate will only compile if you enable the "cryptographically-insecure" feature.
Only use this crate and algorithm for research and educational purposes.
This crate contains bindings to the C implementations of the following schemes,
from [PQClean][pqclean].
This project packages Post-Quantum cryptographic algorithms that participate in
the [NIST PQC standardization effort][nistpqc]. It is currently a collection of
wrappers around C implementations from the [PQClean][pqclean] project.
## Serialization
If you want `serde` support, enable the `serialization` feature.
## Included implementations from PQClean
Below is a list of the included schemes and the corresponding implementations
sourced from [PQClean][pqclean]. The "default" implementation is used in the
Rust-friendly interface, alternative implementations are exposed as ``ffi``
methods only.
* ``rainbowI-circumzenithal``
* ``clean``
* ``rainbowI-classic``
* ``clean``
* ``rainbowI-compressed``
* ``clean``
* ``rainbowIII-circumzenithal``
* ``clean``
* ``rainbowIII-classic``
* ``clean``
* ``rainbowIII-compressed``
* ``clean``
* ``rainbowV-circumzenithal``
* ``clean``
* ``rainbowV-classic``
* ``clean``
* ``rainbowV-compressed``
* ``clean``
## Notes
This implementation requires a lot of stack space.
You need to specify ``RUST_MIN_STACK=800000000``, probably.
Rainbow does no longer get the claimed security, see
