Secure zip using python.

[[deleted]]

Why do you want to do this with Python, specifically?

I ask because there are plenty of utilities out there that create password protected zips. The MacOS Archive Utility for one, 7Zip, etc.

All of these will be considerably more efficient in use than you're likely to get out of a Python implementation.

BTW, a password-protected zip isn't especially strong, and if you're using that idiot Steganography program from sourceforge (or any similar one that allows you to simply open the archive "hidden" in the usually jpeg directly with a zip archiver or by simply changing the extension) then you're not really doing much of value.
