Package ecies-bls12381

ecies-bls12381 is a Go package that simplifies keypair generation, encryption, and decryption using Elliptic Curve Integrated Encryption Scheme (ECIES) with the BLS12381 elliptic curve. It leverages the Kyber cryptographic library for secure operations, making it easy for developers to integrate robust cryptographic functionalities into their applications. Suitable for proxy re-encryption.

This package is built on top of the github.com/drand/kyber library, which provides a high-level API for cryptographic operations. The BLS12381 elliptic curve is a pairing-friendly curve that is widely used in cryptographic applications, including proxy re-encryption and secure data sharing.

Key Features

• Key Pair Generation: Generate secure elliptic curve key pairs.
• Public Key Derivation: Derive public keys from private keys.
• Message Encryption: Encrypt messages securely using public keys.
• Message Decryption: Decrypt messages using corresponding private keys.
• Proxy Re-Encryption Support: Suitable for use cases involving proxy re-encryption for secure data sharing.

Installation

To install the package, run:

go get github.com/rafagomes/ecies-bls12381

Usage

package main

import (
	"fmt"

	eciesbls12381 "github.com/rafagomes/ecies-bls12381"
)

func main() {
	// Generate key pair
	publicKey, privateKey := eciesbls12381.GenerateECKeypair()
	fmt.Println("Public Key:", publicKey)
	fmt.Println("Private Key:", privateKey)

	// Encrypt a message
	message := []byte("Hello, BLS12381!")
	ciphertext, err := eciesbls12381.EncryptWithEC(publicKey, message)
	if err != nil {
		fmt.Println("Encryption error:", err)
		return
	}
	fmt.Println("Ciphertext:", ciphertext)

	// Decrypt the message
	plaintext, err := eciesbls12381.DecryptWithEC(privateKey, ciphertext)
	if err != nil {
		fmt.Println("Decryption error:", err)
		return
	}
	fmt.Println("Plaintext:", string(plaintext))
}
