passwap
Package passwap provides a unified implementation between different password hashing algorithms. It allows for easy swapping between algorithms, using the same API for all of them. -
secureio
An easy-to-use XChaCha20-encryption wrapper for io.ReadWriteCloser (even lossy UDP) using ECDH key exchange algorithm, ED25519 signatures and Blake3+Poly1305 checksums/message-authentication for Go (golang). Also a multiplexer. -
goArgonPass
goArgonPass is a Argon2 Password utility package for Go using the crypto library package Argon2 designed to be compatible with Passlib for Python and Argon2 PHP. Argon2 was the winner of the most recent Password Hashing Competition. This is designed for use anywhere password hashing and verification might be needed and is intended to replace implementations using bcrypt or Scrypt. -

README
argon2pw
Argon2 password hashing package with constant time hash comparison
Preface: Argon2 was selected as the winner of the Password Hashing Competition. Argon2 is ideal for deriving cryptographic keys from passwords.
This package utilizes the Argon2i hashing algorithm that is the side-channel resistant version of Argon2. It uses data-independent memory access, which is preferred for password hashing and password-based key derivation. Argon2i requires more passes over memory than Argon2id to protect from trade-off attacks.
The generated salted hash is ideal for persistent storage in a single column as a string and is future proof if time or memory parameters for argon2i change.
Additionally, argon2pw includes a function for password comparison in constant time to prevent timing attack vectors.
Usage:
package main
import "github.com/raja/argon2pw"
func main() {
// Generate a hashed password
testPassword := `testPassword$x1w432b7^`
hashedPassword, err := argon2pw.GenerateSaltedHash(testPassword)
if err != nil {
log.Panicf("Hash generated returned error: %v", err)
}
// Test correct password in constant time
valid, err := argon2pw.CompareHashWithPassword(hashedPassword, testPassword)
log.Printf("The password validity is %t against the hash", valid)
// Test incorrect password in constant time
valid, err = argon2pw.CompareHashWithPassword(hashedPassword, "badPass")
log.Printf("The password validity is %t against the hash", valid)
}
