simplestcrypt

Simplest way to perform a symmetric encryption, using a preshared key. Very small wrapper around aes-siv crate, with randomly generated nonces, for anything more advanced, use aes-siv instead

Example

``` rust use std::str; fn main() { let payload = "Hello world!".as_bytes(); let password = b"hello wooooooooo";

let encrypted = simplestcrypt::encrypt_and_serialize(&password[..], &payload).unwrap();
let plain = simplestcrypt::deserialize_and_decrypt(&password[..], &encrypted).unwrap();

println!("{:?}", str::from_utf8(&plain));

} ```

Serialization notes

Bincode adds 8 bytes in between the serialized nonce and the serialized ciphertext so it looks like:

| Bytes | Description | | ------- | ----------------------------------------- | | 0 - 15 | Nonce used when encrypting the ciphertext | | 16 - 23 | The lenght of the cyphertext | | 24 - .. | Cyphertext |

This needs to be taken into account when interoperating with other libraries
