Okay, that's another fine choice!

We're currently using a total ad-hoc pseudo-random function implementation which uses SHA-1 to generate numbers. Replacing that by one of the stronger SHA variants supported by NaCl might be an easy place to start: http://hg.viff.dk/viff/file/ff249565fa3a/viff/prss.py#l260 And then there is the Shamir sharing and recombination stuff here, which requires fast bignum addition and multiplication: http://hg.viff.dk/viff/file/ff249565fa3a/viff/shamir.py but I think Dan plans to make custom code for that. -- Martin Geisler VIFF (Virtual Ideal Functionality Framework) brings easy and efficient SMPC (Secure Multi-Party Computation) to Python.
