Code & Projects

Hyperledger Ursa was approved as a new project in November 2018 with the goal of creating a shared library to avoid the duplication of cryptographic implementations in other projects.  Having a shared library would mean that maintenance would be easier, and security bugs would be less numerous.  Hyperledger Ursa was an innovative project because, but it has been moved to archived status since the original maintainers were no longer able to devote time to it.  Code from Ursa still lives on in numerous other projects and one of the original maintainers for Ursa has also started a new lab called Agora that is focused on the advancement of cryptography libraries and software.  Check out our blog post about the Ursa project to learn more about what the project accomplished and what is happening today in the community with cryptographic developments.
