Verifying Rust cryptography in SymCrypt, from standards to code

SymCrypt is developing reliable cryptographic algorithms using Rust, Aeneas, and Lean, enhancing security assurance. Their code is proven to safely and correctly implement standard algorithms, particularly focusing on post-quantum cryptography. Verified code, specifications, properties, and proofs will be released, starting with SHA-3 and ML-KEM. Formal verification is crucial in cryptography, as small mistakes can lead to significant consequences. Tools like Aeneas allow for verifying a large subset of Rust code, facilitating the proof process. Additionally, agents help scale automation by writing independently-verifiable proofs.
