@unnumbered GOST cryptography

This site is dedicated to Russian Federation's cryptographic algorithms
and is intended to popularize them. Many people even do not know about
their existence.

Why those algorithms could be interesting and be used as an alternative
to the western ones? Because they obviously are not worse, in some
places are much better and have high serious security margin.

Information here is aimed for software and protocol developers.
There are example implementations of those algorithms on
@url{http://www.cypherpunks.ru/pygost/, Python} and on
@url{http://www.cypherpunks.ru/gogost/, Go}.
