libGringotts is a small, easy-to-use, thread-safe C library originally
|
||
|
|
developed for Gringotts. Its purpose is to encapsulate data (generic:
|
||
|
|
ASCII, but also binary data) in an encrypted and compressed structure,
|
||
|
|
to be written in a file or used elseway. It makes use of strong
|
||
|
|
encryption algorithms, to ensure the data are as safe as possible, and
|
||
|
|
allow the user to have the complete control over all the algorithms used
|
||
|
|
in the process.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
For encryptions, libGringotts makes use of the MCrypt and MHash libs.
|
||
|
|
It includes some other useful features, like generation of encrypted
|
||
|
|
temporary files, secure memory management, and functions for the
|
||
|
|
evaluation of password quality.
