Overview#

The ELS PKC application provides examples which demonstrate usage of most available algorithms and a crypto library lightweight testing:

  • AES-128/192/256 encryption/decryption, modes ECB/CBC/CTR/GCM/CMAC

  • SHA2-224/256/384/512 (including sha-direct mode)

  • KDF: CKDF (NIST SP 800-108 / SP800-56C), HKDF (RFC5869)

  • HMAC

  • ECC Sign/Verify/Keygen/Keyexchange (P-256)

  • RFC3394 key wrapping/unwrapping

  • Key Import/Export/Utilities/Provisioning

  • Random number Generation (DRBG/PRNG)
