Cryptlib Description

Powerful security toolkit that allows you to easily add encryption and authentication services to your software cryptlib is a powerful security toolkit that allows even inexperienced crypto programmers to easily add encryption and authentication services to their software. The high-level interface provides anyone with the ability to add strong security capabilities to an application in as little as half an hour, without needing to know any of the low-level details that make the encryption or authentication work. Because of this, cryptlib dramatically reduces the cost involved in adding security to new or existing applications. At the highest level, cryptlib provides implementations of complete security services such as S/MIME and PGP/OpenPGP secure enveloping, SSL/TLS and SSH secure sessions, CA services such as CMP, SCEP, RTCS, and OCSP, and other security operations such as secure timestamping (TSP). Since cryptlib uses industry-standard X.509, S/MIME, PGP/OpenPGP, and SSH/SSL/TLS data formats, the resulting encrypted or signed data can be easily transported to other systems and processed there, and cryptlib itself runs on virtually any operating system - cryptlib doesn't tie you to a single platform. This allows email, files, and EDI transactions to be authenticated with digital signatures and encrypted in an industry-standard format. cryptlib is supplied as source code for Macintosh/OS X, FreeBSD/NetBSD/OpenBSD, HP-UX, IRIX, Linux, AMX, BeOS, ChorusOS, DOS, DOS32, eCOS, C/OS-II, embedded Linux, IBM MVS, ITRON, OS/2, PalmOS, RTEMS, Tandem. cryptlib's highly portable nature means that it is also being used in a variety of custom embedded system environments. In addition, cryptlib is available as a standard Windows DLL and an ActiveX control.. cryptlib comes with language bindings for C / C++, C# / .NET, Delphi, Java, Python, and Visual Basic (VB). cryptlib provides a standardised interface to a number of popular encryption algorithms, as well as providing a high-level interface that hides most of the implementation details and uses operating-system-independent encoding methods that make it easy to transfer secured data from one operating environment to another. Although use of the high-level interface is recommended, experienced programmers can directly access the lower-level encryption routines for implementing custom encryption protocols or methods not directly provided by cryptlib.
