Involved Source Files Package rc4 implements RC4 encryption, as defined in Bruce Schneier's Applied Cryptography. RC4 is cryptographically broken and should not be used for secure applications.
Package-Level Type Names (total 2)
/* sort by: | */
A Cipher is an instance of RC4 using a particular key. Reset zeros the key data and makes the [Cipher] unusable. Deprecated: Reset can't guarantee that the key will be entirely removed from the process's memory. XORKeyStream sets dst to the result of XORing src with the key stream. Dst and src must overlap entirely or not at all. *Cipher : crypto/cipher.Stream func NewCipher(key []byte) (*Cipher, error)
( KeySizeError) Error() string KeySizeError : error
Package-Level Functions (only one)
NewCipher creates and returns a new [Cipher]. The key argument should be the RC4 key, at least 1 byte and at most 256 bytes.
