libsodium - The Sodium crypto library

Website: https://libsodium.org/
License: ISC
Vendor: Alcance Libre, Inc.
Description:
Sodium is a new, easy-to-use software library for encryption,
decryption, signatures, password hashing and more. It is a portable,
cross-compilable, installable, packageable fork of NaCl, with a
compatible API, and an extended API to improve usability even
further. Its goal is to provide all of the core operations needed to
build higher-level cryptographic tools. The design choices emphasize
security, and "magic constants" have clear rationales.

The same cannot be said of NIST curves, where the specific origins of certain
constants are not described by the standards. And despite the emphasis on
higher security, primitives are faster across-the-board than most
implementations of the NIST standards.
