Digest::ManberHash - a Perl package to calculate Manber Hashes

The murmur hash algorithm by Austin Appleby is an exteremely fast algorithm that combines both excellent collision resistence and distribution characteristics.

Bindings to OpenSSL libssl and libcrypto, plus custom SSH pubkey parsers. Supports RSA, DSA and NIST curves P-256, P-384 and P-521. Cryptographic signatures can either be created and verified manually or via x509 certificates. AES block cipher is used in CBC mode for symmetric encryption; RSA for asymmetric (public key) encryption. High-level envelope functions combine RSA and AES for encrypting arbitrary sized data. Other utilities include key generators, hash functions (md5, sha1, sha256, etc), base64 encoder, a secure random number generator, and 'bignum' math methods for manually performing crypto calculations on large multibyte integers.

From the aescrypt README.html: This is a program for encrypting/decrypting streams of data using Rijndael and Cipher Block Feedback mode (CFB-128). ... 5. This program was deliberately kept extremely simple. It is not intended to be a full encryption solution, it is intended to be used within scripts as part of a complete solution. Keychain management, public key signatures, etc. are all expected to be done external to this program.

Digest::Pearson::PurePerl is an implementation of Peter K. Pearson's hash algorithm presented in "Fast Hashing of Variable Length Text Strings" - ACM 1990. This hashing technique yields good distribution of hashed results for variable length input strings on the range 0-255, and thus, it is well suited for data load balancing. If you prefer a fast implementation, you might want to consider Digest::Pearson instead.

Digest::Pearson is an implementation of Peter K. Pearson's hash algorithm presented in "Fast Hashing of Variable Length Text Strings" - ACM 1990. This hashing technique yields good distribution of hashed results for variable length input strings on the range 0-255, and thus, it is well suited for data load balancing. The implementation is in C, so it is fast. If you prefer a pure Perl version and can tolerate slower speed, you might want to consider Digest::Pearson::PurePerl instead.

This is not C-code interface (like `Digest::MD5') but a Perl-only implementation of MD4 (like `Digest::Perl::MD5'). Because of this, it is slow but avoids platform specific complications. For efficiency you should use `Digest::MD4' instead of this module if it is available.

This is not an interface (like "Digest::MD5") but a Perl implementation of MD5. It is written in perl only and because of this it is slow but it works without C-Code. You should use "Digest::MD5" instead of this module if it is available. This module is only usefull for computers where you cannot install "Digest::MD5" (e.g. lack of a C-Compiler).

aespipe program is AES encrypting or decrypting pipe. It reads from standard input and writes to standard output. It can be used to create and restore encrypted tar or cpio archives. It can be used to encrypt and decrypt loop-AES compatible encrypted disk images.

Digest::SHA::PurePerl is a complete implementation of the NIST Secure Hash Standard. It gives Perl programmers a convenient way to calculate SHA-1, SHA-224, SHA-256, SHA-384, and SHA-512 message digests. The module can handle all types of input, including partial-byte data. Digest::SHA::PurePerl is written entirely in Perl. If your platform has a C compiler, you should install the functionally-equivalent (but much faster) Digest::SHA module.
