It uses Math::Pari, a perl interface to the blazingly fast +PARI library, for big integer arithmetic and number theoretic computations. + +Crypt::RSA provides arbitrary size key-pair generation, plaintext-aware +encryption (OAEP) and digital signatures with appendix (PSS). For +compatibility with SSLv3, RSAREF2, PGP and other applications that follow +the PKCS #1 v1.5 standard, it also provides PKCS #1 v1.5 encryption and +signatures. |
