Using Themis in Ruby #

RbThemis gem provides access to features of Themis cryptographic library for Ruby:

Key generation: securely generate strong key pairs and symmetric keys.
Data storage at rest: encrypt sensitive data for storage with symmetric cryptography.
Authenticated messaging: exchange messages which are readable only by the recipent using asymmetric cryptography, or sign messages with your private key to prove identity.
Protect data in motion: establish a session between a client and a server for secure data exchange with perfect forward secrecy guarantees.
Secret comparison: verify that the other party has the same shared secret as you have — without disclosing anything about the secret to anyone — using zero-knowledge proofs.

Supported Ruby versions #

RbThemis is tested and supported on Ruby 2.4 and later.
