NaCl.Core, a cryptography library for .NET

Build Status CI Build status Build Status contributions welcome

Introduction

NaCl.Core is a managed-only cryptography library for .NET which provides modern cryptographic primitives.

Currently supported:
Crypto Description
ChaCha20 A high-speed stream cipher based on Salsa20
XChaCha20 Based on ChaCha20 IETF with extended nonce (192-bit instead of 96-bit)
Poly1305 A state-of-the-art secret-key message-authentication code (MAC) based on RFC8439
ChaCha20Poly1305 An Authenticated Encryption with Associated Data (AEAD) algorithm; IETF variant as defined in RFC8439 and in its predecessor RFC7539
XChaCha20Poly1305 A variant of ChaCha20-Poly1305 that utilizes the XChaCha20 construction in place of ChaCha20; as defined in the RFC Draft

Installation

NuGet CI NuGet

Install the NaCl.Core NuGet package from the .NET Core CLI using:

dotnet add package NaCl.Core

or from the NuGet package manager:

Install-Package NaCl.Core

Or alternatively, you can add the NaCl.Core package from within Visual Studio's NuGet package manager.

Daily NuGet builds of the project are also available in the Azure Artifacts feed:

Usage

alternate text is missing from this package README image

Symmetric Key Encryption
// Create the primitive
var aead = new ChaCha20Poly1305(key);

// Use the primitive to encrypt a plaintext
aead.Encrypt(nonce, plaintext, ciphertext, tag, aad);

// ... or to decrypt a ciphertext
aead.Decrypt(nonce, ciphertext, tag, plaintext, aad);
MAC (Message Authentication Code)
// Use the primitive to compute a tag
Poly1305.ComputeMac(key, data, tag);

// ... or to verify a tag
Poly1305.VerifyMac(key, data, tag);
