Platform-agnostic APIs used by the official Signal clients and servers

libsignal contains platform-agnostic APIs used by the official Signal clients and servers, exposed as a Java, Swift, or TypeScript library. The underlying implementations are written in Rust

  • libsignal-protocol Implements the Signal protocol, including the Double Ratchet algorithm. A replacement for libsignal-protocol-java and libsignal-metadata-java.
  • signal-crypto Cryptographic primitives such as AES-GCM. We use RustCrypto’s where we can but sometimes have differing needs.
  • device-transfer Support logic for Signal’s device-to-device transfer feature.
  • attest Functionality for remote attestation of SGX enclaves and server-side HSMs.
  • zkgroup Functionality for zero-knowledge groups and related features available in Signal.
  • poksho Utilities for implementing zero-knowledge proofs such as those used by zkgroup; stands for “proof-of-knowledge, stateful-hash-object”.
