ISARA Radiate™ Quantum-Safe Library 3.1 Samples

Samples

Sample code for the toolkit. Each directory has one or more self-contained programs inside demonstrating how to use the toolkit for a specific purpose:

• aead_chacha20_poly1305 — Encrypt/decrypt using ChaCha20/Poly1305 for authenticated encryption.
• chacha20 — Encrypt/decrypt using ChaCha20.
• classicmceliece — Generate keys, encapsulate and decapsulate data using the Classic McEliece KEM.
• common — A small library of functions common to the samples.
• dilithium — Generate Dilithium keys, sign a file's data with a Dilithium key, and verify a Dilithium signature.
• hash — Hash a file's data using SHA2-256, SHA2-384, SHA2-512, SHA3-256, or SHA3-512.
• hss — Generate keys, sign a file's data, detach signatures from a private key's state, and verify a signature using the HSS algorithm.
• integration — Integrating the toolkit with other software.
• kdf — Derive a key (some pseudorandom data) using the specified key derivation function.
• kyber — Generate keys, encapsulate and decapsulate data using Kyber.
• mac — Generate a message authentication code using the specified MAC algorithm.
• rng — Generate pseudorandom bytes using HMAC-DRBG.
• sphincs — Generate keys, sign a file's data, and verify a signature using the SPHINCS+ algorithm.
• version — Display the library's version information.
• VisualStudio — Visual Studio solution and project files.
• xmss — Generate keys, sign a file's data, detach signatures from a private key's state, and verify a signature using the XMSS algorithm.

The integration directory has samples showing how to integrate external implementations with the toolkit. These samples may have external dependencies on specific software such as OpenSSL, or specific operating system features such as having a /dev/urandom device available.

• integration/hash-openssl - Demonstrates using OpenSSL's SHA-256 and SHA-512 with the toolkit's hash API.
• integration/rng-cng - Demonstrates using the Windows Cryptography API: Next Generation (CNG) with the toolkit's random number generator API.
• integration/rng-urandom - Demonstrates using /dev/urandom with the toolkit's random number generator API.

Building Samples

For an evaluation copy of the ISARA Radiate™ Quantum-Safe Library, please contact our sales team.

NOTE In addition to your platform's usual development tools, you'll need a recent version of cmake (version 3.7 or newer): https://cmake.org/ For most systems, you can use your platform's normal package tools to install it, but you may need to build an up-to-date version. Binaries are also available on the CMake website.

The samples use the IQR_TOOLKIT_ROOT CMake or environment variable to determine the location of the toolkit to build against. CMake requires that environment variables are set on the same line as the CMake command, or are exported environment variables in order to be read properly. If IQR_TOOLKIT_ROOT is a relative path, it must be relative to the directory where you're running the cmake command.

1. Install the toolkit somewhere, e.g. /path/to/toolkit/.
2. cd to the samples directory, such as /path/to/toolkit/samples/.
3. Use mkdir to make a build directory; cd into the build directory.
4. Run CMake: cmake -DIQR_TOOLKIT_ROOT=/path/to/toolkit/ .. or IQR_TOOLKIT_ROOT=/path/to/toolkit cmake .. The .. in there refers to the parent of your build directory, so it'll pick up the CMakeLists.txt in the main samples directory.
5. Run make: make

This will build all of the samples in individual directories under the build directory.

Use -DSTATIC=ON to link against the static toolkit library instead of the default shared library.

NOTE Don't build the samples on macOS using gcc 8, they will crash before main() due to a problem with -fstack-protector-all. Use clang to produce Mac binaries.

Windows developers can also use Visual Studio to build the samples, using the solution and project files found in VisualStudio.

To build individual samples:

1. Install the toolkit somewhere, e.g. /path/to/toolkit/.
2. cd to the specific samples directory, such as /path/to/toolkit/samples/hash.
3. Use mkdir to make a build directory; cd into the build directory.
4. Run CMake: cmake -DIQR_TOOLKIT_ROOT=/path/to/toolkit/ .. or IQR_TOOLKIT_ROOT=/path/to/toolkit cmake .. The .. in there refers to the parent of your build directory, so it'll pick up the CMakeLists.txt in the specific samples directory (the one in hash in this case).
5. Run make: make

This will build the specific sample in the build directory.

Running Samples

See individual README.md files in the sample subdirectories for instructions on running specific samples.

Execute the samples with no arguments to use the default parameters, or use --help to list the available options.
