Functions

func NewKey128

func NewKey128() ([]byte, error)

GenerateAESKey will generate a new 16 byte key for AES-128

AES-128 is probably secure and will be better performant than 256, but AES-256 is recommended anyway.

func NewKey192

func NewKey192() ([]byte, error)

GenerateAESKey will generate a new 24 byte key for AES-192

AES-192 is probably secure and will be better performant than 256, but AES-256 is recommended anyway.

func NewKey256

func NewKey256() ([]byte, error)

GenerateAESKey will generate a new 32 byte key for AES-256

This is the recommended key size to use unless you have a reason to be extra concerned about performance and are willing to sacrafice some security peace of mind for it.
