Cryptographic Libraries

A note on the cryptographic libraries used as it is a not a straightforward affair.

Asymmetric encryption

Uses ecies-geth which in turns uses SubtleCrypto Web API (browser), secp256k1 (native binding for node) or elliptic (pure JS if none of the other libraries are available).

Symmetric encryption

Uses SubtleCrypto Web API (browser) or NodeJS' crypto module.
