=head1 NAME
|
||||
|
||||
crypto - OpenSSL cryptographic library
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 SYNOPSIS
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
||||
|
||||
The OpenSSL B<crypto> library implements a wide range of cryptographic
|
||||
algorithms used in various Internet standards. The services provided
|
||||
by this library are used by the OpenSSL implementations of SSL, TLS
|
||||
and S/MIME, and they have also been used to implement SSH, OpenPGP, and
|
||||
other cryptographic standards.
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 OVERVIEW
|
||||
|
||||
B<libcrypto> consists of a number of sub-libraries that implement the
|
||||
individual algorithms.
|
||||
|
||||
The functionality includes symmetric encryption, public key
|
||||
cryptography and key agreement, certificate handling, cryptographic
|
||||
hash functions and a cryptographic pseudo-random number generator.
