| Sybren A. Stüvel | 83169a2 | 2011-08-01 20:55:56 +0200 | [diff] [blame] | 4 | `Python-RSA`_ is a pure-Python RSA implementation. It supports |
| 5 | encryption and decryption, signing and verifying signatures, and key |
| 6 | generation according to PKCS#1 version 1.5. It can be used as a Python |
| 7 | library as well as on the commandline. The code was mostly written by |
