cryptojs
A Node.js cryptographic library providing standard algorithms like AES, DES, SHA, and HMAC for secure data encryption and hashing.
What is cryptojs?
CryptoJS is a Node.js library that provides standard cryptographic algorithms for secure data operations like encryption, decryption, and hashing. It solves the need for reliable cryptographic functions in JavaScript applications, supporting algorithms such as AES, DES, SHA, and HMAC. The library is converted from the Google Code crypto-js project with minimal modifications to maintain compatibility and security.
Node.js developers and JavaScript engineers who need to implement encryption, hashing, or data security features in their applications, particularly those working on web services, APIs, or data-sensitive projects.
Developers choose CryptoJS for its comprehensive algorithm support, cross-platform compatibility, and adherence to standard cryptographic practices, offering a tested alternative to other implementations with reliable mode and padding options.
