Diffie-Hellman - rs_diffie_hellman - Key Exchange Algorithm

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

Diffie-Hellman (DH) is a key exchange protocol that was published by Whitfield Diffie and Martin Hellman in 1976. It is currently used in various applications such as:

  • Establishing a shared secret over an insecure communication channel.
  • Secure communication protocols like Transport Layer Security (TLS), Secure Shell (SSH), Internet Protocol Security (IPSec), etc.
  • Secure email, instant messaging, and Voice over IP (VoIP).

This crate implements the Diffie-Hellman protocol as part of the RustyShield project.
