Crypto
JavaScript: crypto
Main interface providing the Web Crypto API to guest JavaScript VMs. The Web Crypto API is primarily substantiated by this interface, in addition to SubtleCrypto, which focuses on cryptographic primitives which operate in constants time.
Summary
"The Crypto interface represents basic cryptography features available in the current context. It allows access to a cryptographically strong random number generator and to cryptographic primitives."
Specification compliance
Elide's implementation of the Web Crypto API is backed by primitives provided by the JVM host environment; random data uses java.security.SecureRandom, and UUIDs are generated using java.util.UUID.randomUUID. SubtleCrypto is provided via the subtle property.
Properties
Functions
From MDN: "The Crypto.getRandomValues() method lets you get cryptographically strong random values. The array given as the parameter is filled with random numbers (random in its cryptographic meaning).
From MDN: "The randomUUID method of the Crypto interface is used to generate a v4 UUID using a cryptographically secure random number generator."
