libsodium is a modern, portable, and easy-to-use cryptographic library that serves as an API-compatible fork of NaCl. Consistent behavior and formats across supported platforms. It enhances the original design with build and portability improvements, making it widely deployable across platforms for secure encryption, signatures, hashing, and key derivation. Digital signature creation and verification support. Adds extended cryptographic primitives like BLAKE2 and ChaCha20-Poly1305 beyond NaCl.

Features
