title: 'openssl: Toolkit for Encryption, Signatures and Certificates Based on OpenSSL'
version: 2.2.2
doi: 10.32614/CRAN.package.openssl
abstract: Bindings to OpenSSL libssl and libcrypto, plus custom SSH key parsers. Supports
  RSA, DSA and EC curves P-256, P-384, P-521, and curve25519. Cryptographic signatures
  can either be created and verified manually or via x509 certificates. AES can be
  used in cbc, ctr or gcm mode for symmetric encryption; RSA for asymmetric (public
  key) encryption or EC for Diffie Hellman. High-level envelope functions combine
  RSA and AES for encrypting arbitrary sized data. Other utilities include key generators,
  hash functions (md5, sha1, sha256, etc), base64 encoder, a secure random number
  generator, and 'bignum' math methods for manually performing crypto calculations
  on large multibyte integers.
