-* [CAESAR competition](http://competitions.cr.yp.to/caesar.html)
-* [Ascon Analysis](http://ascon.iaik.tugraz.at/analysis.html)
+Pure Rust implementation of [Ascon], a family of authenticated encryption and
+hashing algorithms designed to be lightweight and easy to implement.
+
+[Documentation][docs-link]
+
+## About
+
+Ascon is a family of lightweight algorithms built on a core permutation
+algorithm. These algorithms include:
+
+- Authenticated Encryption with Associated Data (AEAD)
+- Hash functions (HASH) and extendible-output functions (XOF)
+- Pseudo-random functions (PRF) and message authentication codes (MAC)
+
+Ascon has been selected as [new standard for lightweight cryptography] in the
+[NIST Lightweight Cryptography] competition, and has also been selected as the
+primary choice for lightweight authenticated encryption in the final
+portfolio of the [CAESAR competition].
+
+## Minimum Supported Rust Version
+
+This crate requires **Rust 1.41** at a minimum.
+
+We may change the MSRV in the future, but it will be accompanied by a minor
+version bump.
