This is a drop-in replacement for the golang/pkg/net facilities (net.Dial(), net.Listen(), net.Accept() and net.Conn type) using the experimental HerraduraKEx 'secure' key exchange algorithm, first released at github.com/Caume/HerraduraKEx

One can simply replace calls to net.Dial() with hkex.Dial(), and likewise net.Listen() with hkex.Listen(), to obtain connections (hkex.Conn) conforming to the basic net.Conn interface. Upon Dial(), the HerraduraKEx key exchange is initiated (whereby client and server independently derive the same keying material) and session algorithms to be used are exchanged allowing an encrypted channel between client and server.

NOTE: the terms 'secure' and 'securely' where used above are purposely enclosed in singled quotes due to the experimental nature of the HerraduraKEx algorithm used to derive crypto keying material on each end. As of this time no verdict by acknowledged 'crypto experts' as to the true security of the HerraduraKEx algorithm for purposes of session key exchange over an insecure channel has been rendered. It is hoped that such experts in the field will analyze the algorithm and determine if it is indeed a suitable one for use in situations where Diffie-Hellman key exchange is currently utilized.

To run

$ go get /herradurakex.git $ cd $GOPATH/src//herradurakex $ go install . $ cd demo/ $ go build client.go && go build server.go

[ in separate shells ] [A]$ ./server [B]$ ./client
