This crate provides an abstract interface for [AEAD] ciphers, which guarantee both confidentiality and integrity, even from a powerful attacker who is able to execute [chosen-ciphertext attacks]. The resulting security property, [ciphertext indistinguishability], is considered a basic requirement for modern cryptographic implementations.
See [RustCrypto/AEADs] for cipher implementations which use this trait.
Rust 1.41 or higher.
Minimum supported Rust version can be changed in the future, but it will be done with a minor version bump.
