rigel 0.0.1

About

rigel is a minimal implementation of HMAC with SHA512, which is optimized for use with embedded devices. rigel minimizes the amount of allocations made, while still upholding performance speed.

Security

This library has at no point received any formal cryptographic/security audit. It should be used at own risk.

Example

Generate and verify a MAC:

extern crate rigel;

let mac = rigel::hmac_sha512("Secret key".as_bytes(), "Message".as_bytes());

assert!(rigel::verify(&mac, "Secret key".as_bytes(), "Message".as_bytes()));
