**Encryption**
Encryption uses pbkdf2 (see [RFC2898](http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2898.txt)) where the code phrase shared between the sender and receiver is used as the passphrase. For each of the two encrypted data blocks (metadata stored on relay server, and file data transmitted), a random 8-byte salt is used and a IV is generated according to [NIST Recommendation for Block ciphers, Section 8.2](http://nvlpubs.nist.gov/nistpubs/Legacy/SP/nistspecialpublication800-38d.pdf).
