Structs

• Aad
  The additionally authenticated data (AAD) for an opening or sealing operation. This data is authenticated but is not encrypted.
• Algorithm
  An AEAD Algorithm.
• LessSafeKey
  Immutable keys for use in situations where OpeningKey/SealingKey and NonceSequence cannot reasonably be used.
• Nonce
  A nonce for a single AEAD opening or sealing operation.
• OpeningKey
  An AEAD key for authenticating and decrypting (“opening”), bound to a nonce sequence.
• SealingKey
  An AEAD key for encrypting and signing (“sealing”), bound to a nonce sequence.
• Tag
  A possibly valid authentication tag.
• UnboundKey
  An AEAD key without a designated role or nonce sequence.

Enums

Constants

• MAX_KEY_LEN 🔒
• MAX_TAG_LEN
  The maximum length of a tag for the algorithms in this module.
• NONCE_LEN
  All the AEADs we support use 96-bit nonces.

Statics

• AES_128_GCM
  AES-128 in GCM mode with 128-bit tags and 96 bit nonces.
• AES_256_GCM
  AES-256 in GCM mode with 128-bit tags and 96 bit nonces.
• CHACHA20_POLY1305
  ChaCha20-Poly1305 as described in RFC 8439.
