| 1 | # Oxedyne Hematite (fe2o3) |
| 2 | |
| 3 | Hematite is a collection of crates built from first principles, providing foundational tools for building robust applications. See the [github repo](https://github.com/Oxedyne/fe2o3) for more information. |

| 5 | ## This crate |
| 6 | |
| 7 | This is a major application-level crate providing secure peer-to-peer networking via UDP. The Shield (Signed Hash In Every Little Datagram) protocol offers: |
| 8 | |
| 9 | - Security-focused UDP messaging with post-quantum cryptography options |
| 10 | - A lightweight handshake procedure for establishing encrypted sessions |
| 11 | - Robust denial of service mitigation through proof of work validation |
| 12 | - Flexible choice of cryptographic primitives for encryption, signing and key derivation |
| 13 | - Modular design allowing custom protocol implementations |
| 14 | |
| 15 | The crate includes both a library for building Shield protocol applications and a reference UDP server implementation. |
| 16 | |
