Bencoding.Securely

Securely provides building blocks to create secure Titanium apps.

The following proxy objects allow for you to build a composible cross-platform security layer to meet your various security requirements.

Important grade information

If you are using securely in your application now, there are breaking changes in version 2.x. These changes will be put in place to improve your default security.

Examples of the new Secure Properties storageType and securityLevel functionality are available here.

The documentation will be updated when there is an opportunity. If you’d like to contribute please send a PR with the update.
