## About The Project

[![FOSSA Status](https://app.fossa.com/api/projects/git%2Bgithub.com%2Fameasere%2Fkato.svg?type=shield)](https://app.fossa.com/projects/git%2Bgithub.com%2Fameasere%2Fkato?ref=badge_shield)

Kato is a cryptographic proof-of-concept algorithm inspired by AES (Rijndael), or the Advanced Encryption Standard. As a symbol of power, Kato serves as a hybridization focusing on efficiency and versatility without compromising security. We welcome **any** and **all** contributions towards the implementation and empowerment of the algorithm, aiming to become more than just a conceptualized technology.

### Built With

<!-- GETTING STARTED -->
## Getting Started

This is a minimal example of getting Kato operating locally. You may require additional steps, modification or a customized implementation to suit your needs.

### Prerequisites

This is an example of how to list things you need to use the software and how to install them.
* Python: [https://www.python.org/downloads/](https://www.python.org/downloads/)
  * Ensure you also have **pip** installed.

### Installation

1. Clone the repo
   ```sh
   git clone https://github.com/your_username_/Project-Name.git
   ```

   **OR**

   Install using **pip** from the Python Package Index (PyPI)
   ```sh
    pip install kato
    ```
2. Import into your script
    ```python
    from kato import Kato
    ```

<!-- USAGE EXAMPLES -->
## Usage

Below are the minimal usage examples, as well as the returned types from Kato.

<details><summary>Encrypting</summary>

**ECB** Mode:

```python
from kato import Kato

key = bytes(random.sample(range(256), 16))
k = Kato(key)
ciphertext = k.encrypt(bytes("abcdefghijklmnop","utf-8"))
```

**CBC** Mode:

```python
from kato import Kato

key = bytes(random.sample(range(256), 16))
iv = bytes(random.sample(range(256), 16))
k = Kato(key, iv)
ciphertext = k.encrypt(bytes("abcdefghijklmnop","utf-8"))
```

</details>

<details><summary>Decrypting</summary>

```python
plaintext = k.decrypt(ciphertext)
```

</details>


Each Kato class instance will have a key (and optionally, an Initialization Vector) as an attribute. This means you will have to create new Kato instances for each key (and IV pair) you wish to use.

<details><summary>Types</summary>

* **Kato.__init__()**:
    * **key**: 16 bytes
    * **iv** (Optional): 16 bytes

* **Kato.encrypt()**: Returns a 2D Array (list of lists)
    * **plaintext**: 16 bytes
    * **Example Return**: `[[0, 0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0, 0]]`

* **Kato.decrypt()**: Returns a bytes object or 2D Array (list of lists)
    * **ciphertext**: 16 bytes
    * **Example Return**: `b'abcdefghijklmnop'` or `[[0, 0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0, 0]]`
      * **Note**: If any digit in the state matrix cannot be decoded into hex bytes, the function will return a 2D Array.

* **Kato.cipher_block_chaining()**: Returns a bytes object.
    * **block**: 16 bytes
    * **IV** (Optional): 16 bytes
    * **Example Return**: `b'\xxx\xxx\xxx\xxx'`
      * **Note**: This CBC implementation is NOT true CBC, instead a mock-CBC simplying XORing the IV with the block before encryption and after decryption.

* **Kato.transpose_matrix()**: Returns a 2D Array (list of lists)
    * **matrix**: 4x4 2D Array
    * **Example Return**: `[[0, 0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0, 0]]`

* **Kato.omflip_matrix()**: Returns a 2D Array (list of lists)
    * **matrix**: 4x4 2D Array
    * **key**: Array of 4 digits (default is `[3, 1, 0, 2]`)
    * **Example Return**: `[[0, 0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0, 0]]`

* **Kato.omflip_decrypt_matrix()**: Returns a 2D Array (list of lists)
    * **matrix**: 4x4 2D Array
    * **key**: Array of 4 digits (default is `[3, 1, 0, 2]`)
    * **Example Return**: `[[0, 0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0, 0]]`

* **Kato.__add_round_key()**: Returns a 2D Array (list of lists)
    * **state**: 4x4 2D Array
    * **round_key**: 16 bytes
    * **Example Return**: `[[0, 0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0, 0]]`
