Symmetric Key Algorithms
========================
.. module:: wolfcrypt.ciphers
**Symmetric key algorithms** are encryption algorithms that use the **same
cryptographic keys** for both encryption and decryption of data.
This operation is also known as **Symmetric Key Encryption**.
``wolfcrypt`` provides access to the following **Symmetric Key Ciphers**:
Symmetric Key Encryption Classes

Interface
~~~~~~~~~
All **Symmetric Key Ciphers** available in this module implements the following

.. autoclass:: Aes
Example
-------
.. doctest::
>>> from wolfcrypt.ciphers import Aes, MODE_CBC
>>>
>>> cipher = Aes(b'0123456789abcdef', MODE_CBC, b'1234567890abcdef')
>>> ciphertext = cipher.encrypt('now is the time ')
>>> ciphertext
b'\x95\x94\x92W_B\x81S,\xcc\x9dFw\xa23\xcb'
>>> cipher.decrypt(ciphertext)
b'now is the time '
