4. We will coordinate public disclosure with you

When using this library:

1. Always use cryptographically secure random number generators for keys and nonces
2. Never reuse nonces - each encryption operation should use a unique nonce
3. Keep your keys secure - store them in secure key management systems
4. Validate all inputs - ensure data integrity before processing
5. Use the latest version - always update to the most recent release

This library implements AES-GCM-SIV (RFC 8452) which provides:

• Misuse resistance - protects against nonce reuse
• Authenticated encryption - ensures data integrity and confidentiality
• Deterministic encryption - same plaintext + key + nonce = same ciphertext
