* If the user's browser supports [native WebCrypto](http://caniuse.com/#feat=cryptography) via the `window.crypto.subtle` api, this will be used. Under node.js the native [crypto module](https://nodejs.org/api/crypto.html#crypto_crypto) is used. This can be deactivated by setting `openpgp.config.useNative = false`.
* For environments that don't provide native crypto, the library falls back to [asm.js](http://caniuse.com/#feat=asmjs) implementations of AES-CFB, SHA-1, and SHA-256. We use [Rusha](https://github.com/srijs/rusha) and [asmCrypto Lite](https://github.com/openpgpjs/asmcrypto-lite) (a minimal subset of asmCrypto.js built specifically for OpenPGP.js).
* The library implements the [IETF proposal](https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ford-openpgp-format-00) for authenticated encryption using native AES-GCM. This makes symmetric encryption about 30x faster on supported platforms, but is currently incompatible with OpenPGP implementations like GnuPG that do not support GCM yet. You can deactivate this feature by setting `openpgp.config.aead_protect = false` for standard CFB mode.
