Description: Bindings to 'libsodium' : a
modern, easy-to-use software library for encryption,
decryption, signatures, password hashing and more. Sodium uses
curve25519, a state-of-the-art Diffie-Hellman function by
Daniel Bernstein, which has become very popular after it was
discovered that the NSA had backdoored Dual EC DRBG.
