libcryptobox CryptoBox is a project underway to develop a package that provides core functions for safely employing cryptography, while using FIPS ciphers as the underlying cryptographic primitives. It is heavily inspired by NaCL The aim is provide developers with a well-documented, properly-written, FIPS-compliant set of tools for proper encryption. Most developers will want to use NaCL, but this is provided for scenarios in which the use of Suite B ciphers might be required. License: libcryptobox is released under the ISC license. Dependenices: libcryptobox uses the OpenSSL EVP primitives, and requires a recent version of OpenSSL. For example, the version of OpenSSL shipped with OS X as of 10.8.3 is too old. The library was written using OpenSSL 1.0.0.
