This is a library of memory allocators and data structures to handle sensitive information, especially when interfacing with foreign and unsafe code.
It currently features:
Allocator
trait, andBox
, Vec
and String
.Add this to your Cargo.toml
:
toml
[dependencies]
sensitive = "0.10"
The force-mlock
feature may be used to force allocations to be memory‐resident: If the memory cannot be locked, the allocation will fail. Without this feature, locking is attempted, but failures are ignored.
This code relies heavily on experimental nightly‐only APIs.
