-Architecture
-============
-
-``cryptography`` has three different layers:
-
-* ``cryptography``: This package contains higher level recipes, for example
- "encrypt and then MAC". This is implemented on top of
- ``cryptography.hazmat.primitives``.
-* ``cryptography.hazmat.primitives``: This packages contains low level
- algorithms, things like ``AES`` or ``SHA1``. This is implemented on top of
- ``cryptography.hazmat.backends``.
-* ``cryptography.hazmat.backends``: This package contains bindings to low level
- cryptographic libraries. Our initial target is OpenSSL.
