Crypt::OpenPGP Description

Crypt::OpenPGP is a Pure-Perl OpenPGP implementation. Crypt::OpenPGP is a Pure-Perl OpenPGP implementation.SYNOPSIS my $pgp = Crypt::OpenPGP->new; my $result = $pgp->handle( Data => $message_body ); my $signature = $pgp->sign( Filename => $file, KeyID => $key_id, Passphrase => $pass, Detach => 1, Armour => 1, ); my $valid = $pgp->verify( Signature => $signature, Files => , ); my $ciphertext = $pgp->encrypt( Filename => $file, Recipients => $key_id, Armour => 1, ); my $plaintext = $pgp->decrypt( Data => $ciphertext, Passphrase => $pass, );Crypt::OpenPGP is a pure-Perl implementation of the OpenPGP standard. In addition to support for the standard itself, Crypt::OpenPGP claims compatibility with many other PGP implementations, both those that support the standard and those that preceded it.Crypt::OpenPGP provides signing/verification, encryption/decryption, keyring management, and key-pair generation; in short it should provide you with everything you need to PGP-enable yourself. Alternatively it can be used as part of a larger system; for example, perhaps you have a web-form-to-email generator written in Perl, and you'd like to encrypt outgoing messages, because they contain sensitive information. Crypt::OpenPGP can be plugged into such a scenario, given your public key, and told to encrypt all messages; they will then be readable only by you.This module currently supports RSA and DSA for digital signatures, and RSA and ElGamal for encryption/decryption. It supports the symmetric ciphers 3DES, Blowfish, IDEA, Twofish, CAST5, and Rijndael (AES). Rijndael is supported for key sizes of 128, 192, and 256 bits. Crypt::OpenPGP supports the digest algorithms MD5, SHA-1, and RIPE-MD/160. And it supports ZIP and Zlib compression. Requirements: · Perl
