cardano-sl-crypto

The cryptographic primitives used in Cardano SL.

• A simplified interface to access the AES encryption functionality in the cryptonite library. It uses AES256 CTR mode with IV = 0.
• Cryptographic hashing (again using the cryptonite library).
• A wrapper around the scrypt library used for password-based key derivation functions.
• A wrapper around pvss-haskell for Verifiable Secret Sharing (VSS).
• Secure generation of cryptographically random numbers and ByteStrings.
• Hierarchical derivation functionality for Hierarchical Deterministic key creation (ie for the wallet).
• Cryptographic signing and signature checking.
• Aeson and Bi (serialisation, see the cardano-sl-binary package) instances for the cryptographic data types.
