Projects Cryptographic Algorithm Validation Program

Cryptographic Algorithm Validation Program CAVP

Implementation Name
RSA in IBM z/OS® Cryptographic Services ICSF PKCS #11 using CEX3A
Description
RSA Signature Verification is a hybrid implementation supported by the IBM Crypto Express3 configured as an accelerator (CEX3A). The RSA algorithm is architected and implemented in two layers: the top layer handles the PKCS#1 padding of the results; the bottom layer deals with the modulo arithmetic and exponentiation which is supported by CEX3A. CEX3A provides fast, ultra-secure, hardware-based arithmetic primitives.
