hi guys,
i am new in the list; let me do a question about GNU Crypto:
in practice, data is never encrypted directly with RSA. rather the
data is encrypted with a random secret key and a symmetric algorithm first,
and the secret key is encrypted with the RSA key.
so, the first part is easy, e.g., i can use ICM in order to generate a
random secret key for AES, and then making an AES encryption of the
plain text.
QUESTION IS: how to encrypt the key with RSA ?
i can`t found out RSA encryption in gnu crypto :-(
by the way, i wonder if gnu crypto is complaint with the PKCS#1 standard?
thanks in advance,
