OpenSSL's cryptolib and SET
Hi, I'm implementing a subset of the SET protocol and since I'm still a student : I'm not a crypto-expert. So, I searched the internet to find some good and free cryptography software. As far as I've seen, cryptolib seems to fullfill my needs but I'd like to know whether I can build my application on top of it or not. Here are my requirements : - RSA, OAEP DES and CDMF encryption/decryption - SHA-1 digest computation - Basic X.509 Certificate Management (Disk storage, CRL look-up, ...) I'd just like to know which of the previous tasks can be done using the OpenSSL. Parsing/Writing of DER bitstream our of some data structure would be highly appreciate : does OpenSSL provides routines for that? Otherwise, where can I find a free library to do so?

"Commercial Data Masking Facility", IBM's patented DES-based 40-bit symmetric cipher. (They refuse to call it "encryption" because of the short key length, hence the term "data masking".) This should be obsolete given the current US export rules. CDMF should be straight-forward to implement based on the existing DES implementation, the description is available in some issue of the IBM research journal. __ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List[EMAIL PROTECTED] Automated List Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED]
