Build Status

This is a go implementation of elliptical curve diffie-hellman key exchange method. It supports the NIST curves (and any curves using the elliptic.Curve go interface) as well as djb's curve25519.

The library handles generating of keys, generating a shared secret, and the (un)marshalling of the elliptical curve keys into slices of bytes.

Warning and Disclaimer

I am not a cryptographer, this was written as part of a personal project to learn about cryptographic systems and protocols. No claims as to the security of this library are made, I would not advise using it for anything that requires any level of security. Pull requests or issues about security flaws are however still welcome.

Compatibility

Works with go 1.2 onwards.
