[Cryptash](https://github.com/deemru/Cryptash) implements hash based encryption with user-defined size of [IV](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Initialization_vector) and [MAC](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Message_authentication_code).

It is a pretty simple way to protect and verify your data transfers which goes outside.
