The following standards are supported: 10(1) PKCS#1 RSA encryption standard; 11(2) FIPS-186 DSA (signature) standard; 12(3) PKCS#8 private key information standard. 13Keys may be specified via algorithm or in a more abstract and general way with ASN.1. 14The parameters for the Elliptic Curve (EC) encryption algorithm are only specified as 15input parameters to the relevant EC-generator. 16</p> 17</body> 18</html> 19
