Apple has revealed its new framework called CryptoKit to perform cryptographic operations securely and efficiently. According to the official documentation, the new kit will perform common cryptographic operations such as:
- Compute and compare cryptographically secure digests.
- Use public-key cryptography to create and evaluate digital signatures, and to perform key exchange. In addition to working with keys stored in memory, you can also use private keys stored in and managed by the Secure Enclave.
- Generate symmetric keys, and use them in operations like message authentication and encryption.
