Encryption and Cryptography Library

A security-focused library project exploring cryptographic building blocks, encryption workflows, and reusable interfaces for protected data handling.

Highlights

  • Built a reusable library around encryption and cryptographic operations instead of a one-off demo.
  • Explored how security-sensitive code should be structured as clean, reusable interfaces.
  • Extended embedded and systems thinking into security-oriented software design.
  • Used the project to strengthen understanding of protected data handling and algorithm-level engineering.

This project represents my interest in security-focused systems work alongside embedded and low-level software.

Instead of treating encryption as a one-off feature, I approached it as a library problem: define reusable interfaces, structure the code clearly, and think carefully about how protected data should move through the system. That made it a useful exercise in both software design and security-oriented engineering.

Why it is part of the portfolio

I wanted this project included because it shows that my interests are not limited to firmware on physical hardware. I am also interested in the lower-level software ideas that sit close to correctness, reliability, and trust, and cryptographic code is a good example of that kind of engineering mindset.

What it adds to my profile

This project broadens the portfolio by showing security-oriented library work next to embedded firmware, FPGA, telemetry, and system integration projects. It reflects the same habit of thinking I use elsewhere: understand the fundamentals, keep interfaces clean, and build from first principles where that depth matters.
