Google seeks more security through cryptography
KeyCzar The company has implemented an open source tool that allows developers to use encryption in their applications.
KeyCzar The ultimate goal is to provide developers with a secure and reliable tool that can be easily inserted into your code. As highlighted by Steve Weiss, engineer security software from Google, which has helped develop KeyCzar, "it is difficult to use cryptography and, if made badly, can create serious security holes."
Weiss explained that common errors, such as using outdated algorithms or not being able to mingle with new encryption keys can lead to tools are completely useless. KeyCzar The objective is to simplify these acts and allow developers to not only put the coding tools in place, but key manage and change if necessary
. That is KeyCzar facilitates rotation and suspension without the developer key have to worry about compatibility or changes affecting the source code. Google has warned, however, that KeyCzar not be seen as a complete coding system, as it contains libraries and runs most of the tasks of coding, but a first step. KeyCzar The first version is available for download from the Google Code
service company. The tool is currently limited to the Java programming language and Python, but Google is already preparing a version for C + +.
