Description: SPHINX password storage protocol - reference server implementation
SPHINX -- password Store that Perfectly Hides from Itself (No Xaggeration) --
is an information-theoretically secure cryptographic password storage
protocol with strong security guarantees, as described in the 2015 paper
"Device-Enhanced Password Protocols with Optimal Online-Offline Protection" by
Jarecki, Krawczyk, Shirvanian, and Saxena (https://ia.cr/2015/1099).
.
This package contains a CLI frontend ("sphinx"), a reference server
implementation ("oracle") and a python wrapper for the SPHINX protocol.
.
If you want to use the websphinx browser extension you need to
install an X11 variant of pinentry, as suggested by this package.
