K2 is a cryptographic toolkit that provides an easy, code-reviewable way to do crypto safely - avoiding many of the subtle problems that come up when you do crypto yourself.
Although several of the maintainers are Google employees, this is just something we needed and decided to build - classic open source engineering. There is no official Google support or endorsement of this project.
K2 is currently in the design and early build phase.
KeyCzar is great, and we recommend using that until K2 is ready.
Developers: k2-crypto-dev Google group
Users: Someone should set this up once there is something usable.
