§DES - rs_des - Data Encryption Standard

Important Note: This crate is still a work in progress and is not ready for consumption.

DES is a symmetric-key block cipher published by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in 1977. It’s currently used in:

  • Legacy systems requiring backward compatibility
  • Secure Shell (SSH) for secure remote administration
  • Kerberos network authentication protocol
  • Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) and Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocols

This crate implements DES as part of the RustyShield project.
