Description
IBM CryptoLite is a C software package providing advanced cryptographic services in a very small footprint. CryptoLite supports public key encryption, digital signatures, symmetric ciphers, hash functions, message authentication codes, and other cryptographic algorithms through a simple programming interface. There are no runtime dependencies and the code has been optimized for high performance.
Tested Configuration(s)
- AIX 5200-07 (32-bit kernel), AIX 5200-07 (64-bit kernel), AIX 5300-03 (32-bit kernel), AIX 5300-03 (64-bit kernel) (single-user mode)
