* Package name : libntru Version : 0.4.1 Upstream Author : Tim Buktu * URL : https://github.com/tbuktu/libntru * License : GPL Programming Lang: C Description : implementation of the public-key encryption scheme NTRUEncrypt in C This library is an implementation of the NTRU encryption scheme in C. The NTRUEncrypt public key cryptosystem, also known as the NTRU encryption algorithm, is a lattice-based alternative to RSA and ECC and is based on the shortest vector problem in a lattice (which is not known to be breakable using quantum computers). NTRU is an IEEE and X9 standard and offers encryption, decryption, and signing. More details are available at https://www.securityinnovation.com/products/encryption-libraries/ntru-cryptography.html This package is a dependency of goldbug/spot-on i'm also trying to package, but will be useful to anyone wanting to use the NTRU algorythm for encryption. There are no debian packages offering NTRU as far as i know, but i might as well package https://github.com/NTRUOpenSourceProject/ntru-crypto As this is a shared library package, it might need to be maintained by the debian media maintainers team, but i'm willing to take part of it if it is possible. I also need a sponsor. Regards,
