SecureD 3.0 has been released. This version was set in motion by a Cedric Picard, a D community member with Cryptography experience, reaching out and suggesting a number of improvements to the Symmetric and KDF API's. This resulted in an API for symmetric encryption that improves correctness and security without significantly increasing developer workload. Also improved is the encryption envelope that contains symmetrically encrypted data.

Algorithm Changes:

  • Removed: SHA2-224, AES-OFB
  • Added: SHA3-224/256/384/512

And I even remembered to update the examples in the README.

Future work will focus on using the Operating System provided cryptography where available.

I wish more packages did this

Wow, a Cym13 verified crypto library - excellent news!

Well done Adam!

I only miss the docs :)

And even then I still forgot to add examples for the new Password methods...

Indeed. I was actually excited to get the feedback. I am quite proud of what this release accomplished.

Yea, I totally whiffed and forgot to add examples for the new methods. And I can never seem to find the time for the DDoc comments that it really needs. It'll happen ... someday.
