My first thought was "in the Python language", but it's a C extension. Is it even possible to write crypto code in memory managed languages? Due to the need for everything to run in constant time.
- martinky24 2y agoIIRC Go has pretty decent crypto implemented in Go: https://pkg.go.dev/crypto https://pkg.go.dev/crypto
- EasyMark 2y agorust is a type of memory managed language and I don't see any issue with writing crypto there?
- dymk 2y agoc++ is a (poorly) memory managed language by that logic (std::unique_ptr, etc)
- EasyMark 2y agoActually c++ is also excellent if you use modern c++20 and greater. Crypto algos tend to be fairly small compared to a lot of other software and if you can't keep your coders disciplined enough to use memory safe code there then the company or project should probably go under because of skills issues.
- dymk 2y agoAlright, enjoy your RCEs. I’ll be over here being productive, despite my skill issue.
- wolf550e 2y agoPlenty of cryptography in Java, C# and Go.
