+libsparkcrypto is a formally verified implementation of several widely used
+symmetric cryptographic algorithms using the SPARK programming language and
+toolset. For the complete library proofs of the absence of run-time errors
+like type range violations, division by zero and numerical overflows are
+available. Some of its subprograms include proofs of partial correctness.
+
+The distribution contains test cases for all implemented algorithms and a
+benchmark to compare its performance with the OpenSSL library. The achieved
+speed has been found to be very close to the optimized C and Assembler
+implementations of OpenSSL.
