1$Id$ 2 3README for Crypt::RSA 4 5Introduction 6 7 Crypt::RSA is a pure-perl, cleanroom implementation of the RSA 8 public-key cryptosystem. It uses Math::Pari(3), a perl interface to the 9 blazingly fast PARI library, for big integer arithmetic and number 10 theoretic computations. 11 12 Crypt::RSA provides arbitrary size key-pair generation, plaintext-aware 13 encryption (OAEP) and digital signatures with appendix (PSS). For 14 compatibility with SSLv3, RSAREF2, PGP and other applications that 15 follow the PKCS #1 v1.5 standard, it also provides PKCS #1 v1.5 16 encryption and signatures. 17 18Documentation 19 20 Crypt::RSA has extensive POD documentation.
