Cappy Ishihara<p><span>Recently, I've been working on a secrets management library in Rust that uses TPM (Trusted Platform Module) 2.0 to encrypt data. It's eventually going to be exposed as a Freedesktop Secrets API provider.<br><br>I codenamed it </span><b>"Ashura"</b><span> after Ado's banger Doctor-X intro song.<br><br>While building this, I realized the TSS ESAPI is powerful but seriously painful to use directly in Rust. That got me thinking: should I write a crate to wrap ESAPI in an idiomatic, ergonomic Rust interface? Something more flexible than FAPI, but far more approachable for developers. I spent hours wrestling with ESAPI just to get it to do the basics — holy crap, the learning curve is steep.<br><br>If you’re curious (or want to suffer with me), here’s the Ashura source code:<br><br></span><a href="https://github.com/FyraLabs/ashura" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://github.com/FyraLabs/ashura</a><span><br><br>I’m open to feedback on any level — design, code, naming, whatever, or war stories regarding working with TPMs or just HSMs in general (Hello, Apple Secure Enclave!) </span><a href="https://fedi.fyralabs.com/tags/tpm" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#tpm</a> <a href="https://fedi.fyralabs.com/tags/encryption" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#encryption</a> <a href="https://fedi.fyralabs.com/tags/security" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#security</a> <a href="https://fedi.fyralabs.com/tags/rust" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#rust</a> <a href="https://fedi.fyralabs.com/tags/encryptionmanagement" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#encryptionmanagement</a></p>
Strypey<p>It would be really handy if the <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.matrix.org/@matrix" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>matrix</span></a></span> protocol included a set of labels for your secure sessions, separate from the session names shown to other people. Encrypted with your own private key, and decrypted for your eyes only when you log in.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.nzoss.nz/tags/Matrix" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Matrix</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.nzoss.nz/tags/EncryptionManagement" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>EncryptionManagement</span></a></p>
