Cryptography
Cryptography is broadly divided into two levels. One with safe cryptographic recipes, “cryptography for humans” if you will. These are safe and easy to use and don’t require developers to make many decisions.
The other level is low-level cryptographic primitives. These are often dangerous and can be used incorrectly. They require making decisions and having an in-depth knowledge of the cryptographic concepts at work. Because of the potential danger in working at this level, this is referred to as the “hazardous materials” or “hazmat” layer. These live in the cryptography.hazmat package, and their documentation will always contain an admonition at the top.

ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed reading your brief explanation about cryptography level, you did summarised the article but you missed some information such as (low-level cryptographic algorithms that are frequently used to build cryptographic protocols for computer security systems).
ReplyDeletewell done and have a nice day :)
