Format-Transforming Encryption
Project description
Requires: GMP 5.1.x (https://gmplib.org/), PyCrypto (https://www.dlitz.net/software/pycrypto/)
Format-Transforming Encryption (FTE) is a cryptographic primitive explored in the paper Protocol Misidentification Made Easy with Format-Transforming Encryption [1]. FTE allows a user to specify the format of their ouput ciphertexts using regular expressions. The libfte library implements the primitive presented in [1].
If you are interested in the proxy system that uses FTE to bypass DPI systems, please see fteproxy (https://github.com/kpdyer/fteproxy).
