Chilkat Python Encryption Library

Chilkat Python Encryption Library is an easy-to-use development component that provides support for encrypting and decrypting both strings and binary data.

The tool has been designed with support for symmetric encryption algorithms such as Rijndael, Blowfish, Twofish and can output the encrypted data in the form of Base64, quoted-printable, or hex-encoded strings. 256-bit encryption is supported.

Chilkat Python Encryption Library features a series of hashing functions aimed both at strings and binary data. It uses SHA1, SHA256, SHA384, SHA512, MD2, MD4, MD5, and HAVAL, while also providing support for RIPEMD128, RIPEMD160, RIPEMD256, and RIPEMD320. The program offers BZIP2 compression algorithm and digital signature creation and verification.

With the help of this component, users can create and verify digital signatures and can pre-convert Unicode strings to ANSI and to any charset before encrypting. The application provides them with 256-bit encryption and with support for initialization vectors.

It can encrypt and decrypt entire strings or other type of data, while also providing support for DSA signatures. It enables you to set the public and private keys, then import and export the DSA keys.

Last but not least, Chilkat allows you to use the Diffie-Hellman algorithm to compute a shared secret.
