Comparison of implementations of message authentication code (MAC) algorithms. A MAC is a short piece of information used to authenticate a message—in other words, to confirm that the message came from the stated sender (its authenticity) and has not been changed in transit (its integrity).
Crypto++ (also known as CryptoPP, libcrypto++, and libcryptopp) is a free and open-source C++ class library of cryptographic algorithms and schemes written by Wei Dai.Crypto++ has been widely used in academia, student projects, open-source, and non-commercial projects, as well as businesses. [1]
Blum-Blum-Shub is a PRNG algorithm that is considered cryptographically secure. Its base is based on prime numbers. Park-Miller generator: 1988 S. K. Park and K. W. Miller [13] A specific implementation of a Lehmer generator, widely used because it is included in C++ as the function minstd_rand0 from C++11 onwards. [14] ACORN generator: 1989 ...
cryptlib is a security toolkit library that allows programmers to incorporate encryption and authentication services to software. It provides a high-level interface so strong security capabilities can be added to an application without needing to know many of the low-level details of encryption or authentication algorithms.
[4] OpenAES portable C cryptographic library; LibTomCrypt is a modular and portable cryptographic toolkit that provides developers with well known published block ciphers, one-way hash functions, chaining modes, pseudo-random number generators, public key cryptography and other routines. libSodium API for NaCl
The level of expense required for strong cryptography originally restricted its use to the government and military agencies, [9] until the middle of the 20th century the process of encryption required a lot of human labor and errors (preventing the decryption) were very common, so only a small share of written information could have been encrypted.

The original algorithm uses binary Goppa codes (subfield codes of algebraic geometry codes of a genus-0 curve over finite fields of characteristic 2); these codes can be efficiently decoded, thanks to an algorithm due to Patterson. [4] The public key is derived from the private key by disguising the selected code as a general linear code.
In cryptography, ARIA is a block cipher [1] designed in 2003 by a large group of South Korean researchers. [2] In 2004, the Korean Agency for Technology and Standards selected it as a standard cryptographic technique. The algorithm uses a substitution–permutation network structure based on AES.
