Open source cryptographic library

BeeCrypt is an open source cryptography library that contains highly optimized C and assembler implementations of many well-known algorithms including Blowfish, MD5, SHA-1, Diffie-Hellman, and ElGamal. Unlike some other crypto libraries, BeeCrypt is not designed to solve one specific problem, like file encryption, but to be a general purpose toolkit which can be used in a variety of applications. The BeeCrypt library currently includes: - Entropy sources for initializing pseudo-random generators - Pseudo-random generators: FIPS-186, Mersenne Twister - Block ciphers: Blowfish - Hash functions: MD5, SHA-1, SHA-256 - Keyed hash functions: MD5/HMAC, SHA-1/HMAC, SHA-256/HMAC - Multi-precision integer library, with assembler-optimized routines - Probabilistic primality testing, with optimized small prime trial division - Discrete logarithm parameter generation over a prime field - Diffie-Hellman key agreement - DHAES encryption scheme - ElGamal signature scheme (two variants) - Basic RSA primitives and key pair generation
