kybe-rs is a Pure Rust implementation of the CRYSTALS-KYBER lattice-based key encapsulation suite (KYBER 1), a post-quantum candidate submitted to the NIST standardization process 2.

Why kybe-rs?

The CRYSTALS-KYBER submission already comes with reference implementations, including optimised versions and as made through the 3rd round of NIST standardization process.

kybe-rs is concerned with providing high correctness guarantees: adherence to the CRYSTALS-KYBER specification, memory and type safety, and reproducibility across platforms. Extensive testing and documentation is desired. Performance matters but is a longer-term concern.

Status

Supported features and algorithms

  • Key encapsulation mechanism (KEM)
  • Public-key encryption (PKE)
  • All the parameters described in the NIST submission: kyber-512, kyber-768, and kyber-1024.

Unsupported features and caveats

  • The implementation is not guaranteed to be constant time
  • The implementation is not no_std compatible (for non-essential reasons)
