13 !!SYNOPSIS
14 !!DESCRIPTION
15
16
17 The OpenSSL __crypto__ library implements a wide range of
18 cryptographic algorithms used in various Internet standards.
19 The services provided by this library are used by the
20 OpenSSL implementations of SSL ,
21 TLS and S/MIME, and they have also been used
22 to implement SSH , OpenPGP, and other
23 cryptographic standards.
24 !!OVERVIEW
25
26
27 __libcrypto__ consists of a number of sub-libraries that
28 implement the individual algorithms.
29
30
31 The functionality includes symmetric encryption, public key
32 cryptography and key agreement, certificate handling,
33 cryptographic hash functions and a cryptographic
34 pseudo-random number generator.
